I got flash on PPC!
Well, kind of.
The credit for this goes to the Gentoo forum:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=117774
I simply did:
# apt-get install qemu
# apt-get install mozplugger
downloaded the flash_x86.tar.bz2 file linked in the gentoo forum page and
then edited /etc/mozpluggerrc by adding:
##
## Flash for PPC
##
application/x-shockwave-flash:swf:Flash animation
swallow(Macromedia Flash Player 6): /usr/local/bin/qemu-i386 -L
/usr/local/flash_x86/ /usr/local/flash_x86/usr/bin/gflashplayer "$file"
It works in firefox, not yet made it work in Opera, nor in Mozilla.
I see simple movies (big flash sites are a dream as for now), and cannot
click on links, which makes all this quite useless, but it is a good
start, I think.
