  • Re: Kubuntu/Xubunut/Ubuntu 9.10

    BTW: I'm not sure if anyone's testing and run into the bug where Flash apps aren't clickable (there are certain pre-requisites: I think you have to be using compiz+compositing on 64-bit), but there's an easy fix: download the new 64-bit flash beta and uninstall the flashplugin-installer...
