My daughter likes to play games on noggin.com and nickjr.com. The problem is that some of them will play with Flash 9, which I have installed, but many require Shockwave, which doesn't exist for Linux. Is there any way to get a shockwave plugin to work with Firefox 2.0 and a 2.6.x kernel. My daughter would really appreciate it, and so would I!

Well, since I already had ie6 installed under Wine (using ies4linux), I took a shot at installing Shockwave. After setting the ie6 "security" level down, Shockwave installed and ran just fine. Unfortunately, it was rather slow, even on a moderately fast machine. Tested by coloring Connie the Cow's friends Wally and Patch. It does work, but I suspect the kids won't like it. And I suspect that means even a shockwave plugin running under Firefox would be too slow too.
