Interesting. This hasn't been the case for me at all. I'd be
interested in possibly trying it out but I don't find the
nspluginwrapper. Also I need a Java solution that works correctly at
one specific site. So far the blackdown ones don't. The sun-jre-bin
does but only emerges in the 32-bit environment again. mplayer-bin or
mplayer?
lightning ~ # emerge -pv nspluginwrapper netscape-flash mplayer-bin
mplayerplug-in
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Or possibly
run Specimen in a 32-bit chroot. I have a complete
chroot'ed environment on my Gentoo 64-bit machine so that I can run
all the win32codec and Flash stuff necessary to exist on the web these
days. Much, much, much web content doesn't work with Linux 64-bit
machines but works great in the 32-bit chroot.
you can get all web content with just a multilib glibc. emerge nspluginwrapper
netscape-flash mplayer-bin mplayerplug-in
mplayer is just an X window that gets overlaid into the browser, so you can symlink your
32bit mplayer to /usr/bin/mplayer and it will work fine in a 64bit browser.
nspluginwrapper similarly does some kind of IPC pass-thru to a 32bit plugin.. personally
i'd prefer the 'broken green puzzle piece' for flash but firefox is so bloated
and slow that i have to run (32bit) opera where flash just works..
Yeah. I'm using Firefox but having more trouble with it crashing lately....
