Yesterday, I reported on Adobe AIR for Linux. What I didn’t do in that post is show how to install it and applications built with AIR.
NOTE: I should mention again, AIR itself is not open source, but is free of charge. Just a quick heads-up.
In this FOSSwire video special, I walk you through the process of installing the new Adobe AIR beta. I also show you how to download and install an application written in AIR and how to uninstall applications once you’re done. Finally, I’ll show you how to uninstall the entire AIR platform if you want to rid your computer of it completely.
You can find the sample applications, including Fresh at the Adobe Samples site.

I downloaded th .ogg and it won’t play. I can never play flash video, I haven’t figured it out , yet. Is this “Air” thing supposed to help with that?

Pharohs,
I have no problems here downloading the OGG Theora version in either Mplayer or using KDE 4’s Dragon Player.
If you want to email me - peter@fosswire.com - I can try and work with you to diagnose why the OGG won’t play on your system.
