Thanks for the info! I imagine it's trying to do some sort of update, but
it just seems to sit there saying it's downloading from Adobe. I'll have
to watch the network activity to see if it ever gets done. I've generally
gone off and done other stuff, then, when I come back to that browser
window, it says it's done, but I still have no video, just a nice white
rectangle in the middle of the screen.

So, I was just wondering if anyone has gotten that to work. My wife wants
to see something she missed this week on ABC. It'd be nice to not have to
watch it on a clunky old Windoze machine (our newer machines all run
Fedora).

Harold
