[Gnash] gnash testing

[Jens Petersen]

Hi,

I've been testing gnash personally a bit under Fedora Core 4 (FC4) and 
FC5 on x86_64 recently.

For me the client from current anoncvs head runs ok under FC4 but not 
on FC5: I noticed Fedora Extras 4 has gtkglext 1.0 whereas Extras 5 
has 1.2, but I don't know if that is the cause of the crash I see 
under FC5 whenever I run gnash on any flash file:

% gnash --sync ~/src/gnash/Home.swf
The program 'gnash' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'GLXBadContext'.
  (Details: serial 234 error_code 154 request_code 143 minor_code 5)
:

I didn't manage to get a backtrace with gdb, perhaps it is crashing 
before there is a stack.

However on FC4 I noticed that gnash tends to grab the CPU for me even 
after a flash file has apparently finished running.  Admittedly I 
don't have accelerated 3D graphics, but it looks like a bug of some 
kind to me.

I haven't managed to get the plugin working properly in firefox.
Currently in FC4 it just seem to display the initial flash file 
background, but then nothing happens.  (In FC5 the plugin crashes 
firefox as soon as it tries to render some flash.)  I haven't tried i386.

I attach the rpm .spec file and a configure hack I've been using to 
package and test it.

Thanks for developing gnash. :-)

Jens
