Flash for Linux/PPC - Possible

[Dude]

I am a linux novice, and havn't ever compiled anything under linux.
But found this link and I know there was a need for a Flash Player.

http://gplflash.sourceforge.net/

It is in source form, so maybe somebody has the experience required to
compile this?

Don't let that stop you.

Download the tarball, and unpack it:

tar xjvf gplflash-0.4.12.tar.bz2
cd gplflash-0.4.12/
./configure

It carped at me that I didn't have libmad installed. Looking at the
README, I see this:

Dependencies: libjpeg, zlib, madlib and a X-server (and their
devel-packages).

Once the dependencies are met, you should be able to do this:

./configure
make

If there isn't a problem, you've compiled from source.

Also worth watching is swfdec (http://swfdec.sourceforge.net/)
Both are available as debian binary packages for ppc (and 10 other
platforms), by the way.
