Re: Gutsy Gibbon and shockwave



It looks like I was using Flash and thought it was shockwave. How well
does shockwave work under wine?

As I understand it, shock and flash work fine on Linux32, but not on
Linux64, or at least not without getting worked.

Flash in gutsy works on both ia32 and amd64 architectures now. This is
handled by the plugin finger that's been newly developed. On amd64, it
installs the plugin wrapper and the regular flash for ia32.

I haven't ever known of a shockwave plugin for Linux. Got a link I can
test?


I was wr- mistaken. There ain't no shockwave for Linux, at least, not
without wine.

I was under the impression that shockwave wasn't available for Linux.
However, I am currently running Gutsy Gibbon on my main workstation and
websites with shockwave seem to work.

What's the story behind shockwave and Linux?
