According to the page it does: "Hosts can be running Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Linux."

I'm not sure, I suggest registering it as a problem yourself. I have notified Minor Studios about the problem informally, but it might not have formally been reported.

No reason at all? You didn't happen to run the updater or something?

Not sure what that is, have you tried redownloading + installing it? Sounds like a missing file or something? I have passed on your problem to Minor Studios, hopefully they will respond to you

Diagnose & Repair is not a simple repair though, it involves 'Identifying the problem', which takes a lot longer than a simple repair did in XP, also also unhelpfully says 'Windows did not find any problems with your Internet connection'. Does that mean it has done the repair anyway? Or that it didn't bother?

And fair enough about the interface guidelines, I'll rectify the post, I'll admit I didn't research into that fully, I was taking x5315's word on it.

You can go into the Net/Sharing Centre and then click 'manage network connections' and you can disable + enable there, but there's no renew which is annoying.

UAC is definitely a pain if you're having to do a lot of system work. I can imagine it frustrates you more because the times you use Vista are when you are trying to fix things, so it's going to be popping up all the time! I would suggest temporarily disabling it in these circumstances. I think UAC needs to take a few ideas from Linux - let you interactively choose to run as 'root' for a time, and let you use something like 'sudo' from the command line.

I never thought of using the x86 program files folder as a way of determining if someone is running 64-bit! The Welcome Centre also tells you I believe.

You know, your spam is revealed because this is Disqus, and I can just see that you post the same everywhere else.

Note this is blogs. I have a bunch more categories.

Definitely. The jumpstart episodes are great for finding out about cool levels that I might otherwise miss

I'm not 100% sure, but I think you can just replace it. If that doesn't work, then remove the nspluginwrappers for the old version (using sudo nspluginwrapper -r <path> for all instances of it listed with nspluginwrapper -l), replace the libflashplayer.so file, then run sudo nspluginwrapper -i <pathtolibflashplayer.so> and you should be fine

Thanks for commenting!

I just discovered the directory I was using isn't actually writeable by the game! It's been running fine, but I expect that's why it hasn't been saving my settings! Can't believe I didn't spot that, so thanks

And yeah, just to clarify I'm using Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex beta (freshly updated) on 64-bit.

I'm guessing from the response from Ivan that you spotted my bug submission I made a while ago

I haven't had any issues with Flash 10 yet. I opened up a bunch of video sites - veoh, hulu, youtube, iplayer, and they were all running at the same time fine. Used a fair bit of CPU usage though.

I'm also using the latest Minefield nightly, I don't know if that helps or hinders stability in this case.

I think it looks more complicated than it is. There are only essentially 4 steps, and I've expanded them to be as thorough as possible so people can follow it step by step, rather than just saying 'extract the required libraries' or something like that.

I agree it's a pretty long process considering the result though. Adobe need to make a native 64-bit version of Flash Player 10, then none of this would be needed
