Welcome to the Flash as an Edu-Gaming Platform for the XO-1 page.

this page will be updated soon.


Some relevant links:

Adobe Flash player plugin on OLPC XO-1: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Adobe_Flash

Gnash on the OLPC XO-1: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Gnash


Users may want to install the Adobe Flash browser plugin instead of Gnash which is packaged by default.

Direct link to the latest version of Flash 9: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/flash-plugin-9.0.124.0-release.i386.rpm

Direct link to the latest version of Flash 10 beta: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/flashplayer10_install_linux_091508.i386.rpm


Also, Flash runs significantly faster on the Opera browser instead of XO-1's default Browse activity.

Direct links to the latest stable version of Opera (9.52)
