Fwd: Flash based games not working

[Danny Lieberman]

Amos

Flash on Ubuntu 9 in general consumes much more CPU than previous versions,
full screen youtube on my dual core machine takes 70% of each of the two
cpus- which may be why FF locks. I've confirmed this for 32 and 64 bit -
it's well documented on the Ubuntu forums.....fwiw....people are waiting for
Adobe....

Try upgrading to FF3,5,2 (Shiretoko) - it seems to be much faster for
certain operations and better behaved with gmail java scripts/Ajax
