Flash for Linux (19:00 – 20:00)Adam Robertson
With Adobe’s recent release of Flash Player 9 for Linux and the proliferation of OS flash tools, Linux is rapidly becoming a viable environment for developing real world Flash content. And unless you’ve been living under a rock recently you’ve almost certainly heard of Ubuntu, the current poster child of Linux distributions, and arguably the first Linux distribution to provide a truly usable desktop OS.
In this session we’ll take a closer look at Ubuntu, and cover turning a shiny fresh install into a full featured Flash 8 developement environment using (mostly) Open Source tools including Eclipse, MTASC, ASDT/FDT & SWFMill.

Full Screen Flash ( 20:15 – 21:15 ) – Stefan Richter
In the last released version of the Flash Player a new Full Screen feature was introduced in the Flash Player. Primarily for video use, we’ll take a look at how to implement it and some examples.

1. AdvancED Flash Interface Design donated by friends of ED.

With some luck we’ll also have an exclusive LFPUbuntu DVD for everyone.
