> This is standard for ICANN.  We have found that as long as the Ubuntu user has an updated mainstream browser, adobe connect will function properly.  All of the Ubuntu users up to this point that have had issues are using out of date browsers or non standard browsers.  Standard Browsers are considered, Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, and Chrome.  
>  
> If this is not the case with your user, let me know, provide some details like browser name, browser version, etc.

> Another option is to run the adobe connect add-in:

> Run the flash test, and with step 4, it gives you the option to install the add-in.  This is the most stable application for running Adobe Connect.

> But at this time ICANN does not offer other remote participation applications.

> Hope this helps!  Let me know if you need further details or instructions.
