Adobe Flash Player 10 on Linux: “One Heck of a Beta”

One of the things I like about Adobe is that we’ve gotten better about our Linux releases as we’ve gotten more open. For those that don’t know, we’ve got a beta 2 release of Flash Player 10 which includes Linux. Practical Tech has a post up about the latest version of Flash Player 10 for Linux and is generally really happy with it. There are still some issues to work through of course, but as a company, we’re very committed to Linux for our runtimes and even our developer tools. It’s great to see people notice.

    I got my Dell XPS laptop with Ubuntu and I couldn’t be happier. FlexBuilder is working great, getting SVN working was a pain but I worked through it. Now I just need to get LAMP working and I’ll be set.

    But getting the Flash Player updated to 10 beta, was easier to do than any of the other updates/configs. Very happy about that.
