[kwlug-disc] Flash and Java

[Keefer Rourke]

Pipelight uses Wine as a work around doesn't it? I feel like using the
official flashplugin for Firefox would be more efficient. In my experience
most things run with the official version of flash for GNU/Linux.

I very briefly used Pipelight as a way to make MS Silverlight work, but
changed my mind because it was slower and heavier on system resources.

Cheers,
Keefer
