Myspace videos in Debian or Ubuntu??
Folks, Most myspace videos don't play in Linux that I can see because they use a newer flash movie format and the Linux version is still stuck on 7 (although 9 is on it's way...) Can anybody tell me if I'm wrong or a workaround?

I've been using windows Firefox with the windows plugins, under wine. It's a pretty sucky workaround though, the default wine fonts are terrible and it breaks all launch feedback and desktop integration...

I got it to play using the windows version but zero sound

Sound works too. I'm not sure if I had to do anything special for that, I set it up ages ago when Cairo couldn't play all the games on Neopets.
