I tried lunching firefox both with artsdsp and aoss, but when I load the |
| 20 |
flash page, first it produces sound, then firefox is freezes. I tested |
| 21 |
with http://www.kubrick2001.com site. |

If I start konqueror with artsdsp or aoss, it plays flash anim, but |
| 23 |
still with no sound. |
