flash player freezing! help!


in suse 9.2, my flash player keeps freezing. if i go to http://royville.f2o.org/games/pingvin.htm and try to play. every few seconds, my flash player will freeze for a second or two and it is becoming really annoying. anyone know why?it happens in all browsers.

this is making flash unusable, not only does it freeze, some games dont work at all! if i dont get flash working in linux, then i will make the unfortunate decision of going straight back to windows.

Please help! thx.

It lags a little bit but not enough to not be able to play the game for me. I got 320 m

Might be because the sound runs through arts (suse is kde right). I noticed arts lagged arts a bit. In video clips the mouths moved wrong and in a music theory which plays a few notes with a piano next to it on which the notes are colored it's behind a few tones always too.

Well are you running sound on arts. Is anything else slow. It might be the flashplayer though, as I have a bit of lag too. Though as far as I know other things are working well. I played some other things that did work but it might be that it's because of the sound and the sound server. Maybe turning off the sound server works? Let me try.

Yep it's arts. I killed it as I only use it for sound in firefox flash. And now the game is suddenly all ok. Shame that I haven't found a daemon that can give sound and doesn't lag. Esd did the same.
