Flashplayer GPU acceleration will not be supported in Linux! To those concerned about this, please get an account on bugs.adobe.com and add votes to bug FP-1152 (Support nVidia's VDPAU API) and even better, FP-3146 (Support Acceleration via VA-API). The latter is the new hardware-platform-indepenent Linux video acceleration API (which has a backend for nVidia's VDPAU and others).

Yup, the Broadcom chip is on the list of compatible hardware. I haven't seen
any reports yet, but I'm guessing if you check out the MyHPMini forums
you'll probably find people who have tested it.

Will that 10″ HP w/ Broadcom chip see improved Flash video performance?

Perfect example of inferior tech winning over superior. DIVX was doing 720p right in a broswer using DX underneath and did full 30fps on a 1GHz laptop. Flash 10.1.. wow <— NOT!

Interesting. I wonder how this would apply to Linux systems. Anybody have any thoughts?
