Yes my prompt is $ and my User ID is not 0, so I'm not su.  And unfortunately I've already installed AMDs drivers from the additional drivers and I'm sorry I did- it's already failed on the desktop once.

I think I need Flash because all video content either doesn't play or is limited to 360p but I read Adobe either no longer supports Flash on Linux or makes security updates only?

Is that like Wine?  Will AH run?

Thanks.   -715

Flash comes with the restricted extras or you can search for flash in the software center. The version there is old but works. If you want a newer flash version, install Google Chrome as they maintain their own pepperflash.

Playonlinux is a front-end for wine, it basically helps you install games to wine by making sure you get all the necessary setups (gecko, IE, directx etc.) automatically. After installing World of tanks a couple times with playonlinux, I can now get it running also on bare wine because I now know/remember which components it needs ;)

Playonlinux is a free version of the paid Cedega crossover, which is why Cedega people loathe playonlinux, it's eating their business.
