[Hi-Angel]

What is there anyway? I am not motivated enough to install Flash player, so I just see a black background, a few links, and random text. For some reason...

[Hi-Angel]

Not sure what it looks like but a wild guess: it might have something to do with fonts installed in the system (e.g. lack thereof) or default fonts. On...

To be honest I don't know low-level Wayland details, so I can't say was it worth or not including clipboard in there. I recall seeing somewhere an idea...

[Hi-Angel]

Have no fear, I'll handle him!

uid313 but then Wayland needs to get usable first. However it still didn't have primary clipboard in the main...

It does, they even made a post ½ year ago, just before wine-2.0-stable was released....

duby229 ok, so I ended up using htop. I can tell, when it's sorted by thread IDs (the default), there's no new IDs appearing, i.e. it doesn't create new...

[Hi-Angel]

You're definitely overestimating Adobe's value. I can't imagine a single their product I would need myself. There's a GIMP in which I am well versed,...

With r600g driver and chromium-vaapiᴬᵁᴿ HTML5 videos are very well accelerated....

[Hi-Angel]

Right, I was meaning to oppose e.g. that peoples from Windows will not contribute at all for the simple reason that there's no FOSS driver.

[Hi-Angel]

Judging by "at least for Linux" from the comment , I'd guess the code gonna talk directly to kernel on GNU/Linux, and to a mid-layer on Windows....

[Hi-Angel]
