Interesting. To have gnash close to as functional as the flash-plugin,
you need plugins from rpmfusion. Anne, how is the CPU consum with
gnash? The same or close to flash-plugin? If not, where's the
advantage of gnash over flash-plugin?
Gnash uses GStreamer... I think this is quite a big advantage over original
Flash plugin. If GStreamer can use accelerated drivers, then Gnash can too.
And probably everything is faster than original Flash :D Other advantage - and
for Kevin - the top one - it's open source implementation!
