webinars on linux

[Kurt Ritchie]

Dear open source community,
I just signed up for a webinar on Thursday.
Ubuntu forums give mixed reviews on using Ubuntu and Firefox for
webinars (specifically, using Webex).
Do you all have any knowledge/experience
with this, or other webinar software on Ubuntu?

Kurt,

Are you looking to produce a webinar or view one with Webex?

I am wanting to view one.

I have not tried Webex on Linux, but this page says Ubuntu is officially
supported:
http://support.webex.com/support/system-requirements.html

And this links to details about how some people got it to work:

If you run into more detailed questions as you test this out, you could
ask follow-up questions here, or continue the thread at UbuntuForums.org
where it is already being discussed.
