[edit] Just tried it out and it seems to work well. I can't speak to the stability since I *just* tried it (the old Flash plugin was 100% stable for me, and hopefully this one will continue to be). It plays 1080p fullscreen video from YouTube perfectly and it played a flash game without any trouble. [/edit]

flashplayer-plugin: added v10.09151 which is "Preview 1 of the new Flash Player
'Square'" and it comes in 32-bit as well as 64-bit. Essentially this is the
folow-up to the withdrawn beta flasphplayer 10 for Linux.
WOW!!! If you guys didn't try yet, this new player fixes Hulu!
Those were the magic words for me!
I installed the 64 bit binary from flashplayer_square_p1_64bit_linux_091510.tar.gz in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so and Hulu works on Slackware64.
An interesting side effect is that the Firefox addon Flashblock doesn't seem to work with the new binary. I installed Flashblock as a precaution when I kept the older, vulnerable flashplayer on my machine. I grew to like Flashblock because it got rid of those annoying, constant motion ads.
I solve the flash plugin issue and package maneger for slack, but may that plugin have segurity troubleshoot.
Now my question is why my cpu is more hot in linux slack 13.1 x64 that windows 7 and why the speed is only
between 933-1600Mhz in linux (cpu=intel core i7 1.6Ghz)
how i do for change the speed report for 1.6Ghz-2.8Ghz
I installed it last night from Alien's package and it worked fine on Youtube and some other sites. Obviously, it's too soon to say much about stability.
As a reminder, if you plan to use Youtube to test the new flash plugin, make sure you aren't opted-in to Youtube's HTML5 beta. You can check your status by visiting: http://www.youtube.com/html5
That page will show your status and also allow you to toggle participation. I opted out of html5 before trying out the new flash plugin.
Is there a way to live without flash? For example, is there a way I can just download youtube vids, and watch them locally?
VLC can play a youtube URL directly and does not need any other program for the playback.
Either through the menu (Media > Open network stream) or directly at the commandline:
