Thanks for your advice.


I did it before on Fedora7 installing 32bit flash on 64bit Firefox. It worked w/o problem, not difficult to install. As I'm now running 64bit Ubunutu I expect finding a solution on Ubuntu.

gnash is ideal, if you cvs and svn or git up from the source. and not the .deb bin. if you ask _me_? i would suggest build from source and check for CV's list from vulnerability and update and apply patches as per the need of the hour.
Yes I have subversion running here. I'll try later. Since this is a server I don't expect installing too many packages particularly X packages. X is not started at boot. I only evoke it in need. I need a GUI browser seaching techical doc/articile on Internet. Text browser can't assist me, too many complaint received on browsing "Run the correct browser !!!!"


Although I can foward X here on a workstation with SSH I try avoiding this practice, running 2 PCs doing a single job. Unless I have no alternative.
