that was prepared package form here 
http://www.getgnash.org/packages/releases/openmoko/
and there is 0.8.1 version only

I would like to try build gnash on OM platform by myself on weekend, but 
I never did it before ... suppouse that won't be easy for newbie.

actually, that exactly what I need

I've seen that posting 
http://blog.tomeuvizoso.net/2009/04/embed-flash-movies-with-gnash-in-your.html
but I can't found any links or other examples. May be I just don't 
understand something trivial, but, how can I use it?. If I right 
understand, I need some extra GTK library for that, which I can't found.
