I was a little curious so I fired the sites up in netscape 7 and there was no problem. It isnt just my computer because I had a bunch of my nerd friends test the same thing and we all had the same results! I'm running Slackware 9.1 on an AMD XP 2100 with 512MB od DDR RAM so it isnt a problem of my computer not being able to handle it. It's just a little frustrating when I go to visit some uber cool sites like http://www.2advanced.com Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Goto a site that is completely made in flash 2.Close the window and goto my other favourite flash site 3.Click on a link to another really cool flash site Actual Results: The flash loaded really slow and all the animations seemed like they were in slow motion and the sounds didnt match up! Expected Results: Played the filoe exactly as the designer has intended! My Computer =========== ASUS A7N8X DELUXE AMD XP2100 512DDR RAM ATI Radeon 9600 Pro

1) From Macromedia's website "Linux x86 (1) Footnote on the page (1)Not officially supported by Macromedia." The page is http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/alternates/ 2) Are you using the latest flash plugin Macromedia shows that the current version is 6.0 r81. You can check this information by typing about:plugins in the address bar and looking for a title for Flash. 3) The latest version of the Flash plugin for Windows/Mac is version 7 which was released when Macromedia released their Studio MX, which includes Flash MX. The Linux version of the plugin is still on version 6 which might show that they only support features from Macromedia 4.X Studio. This was the release before Studio MX. The site that you listed in the bug clearly states that one of the requirements is Flash MX support. As well as a broadband connection which I am assuming that you have. If you do not have the latest version of Flash you can download it from the URL listed above. Added the URL listed in the bug description to the URL field in the bug
