Netflix in f18 x64 xfce

[Joseph L. Casale]

Anyone figured out how to get netflix working on f18x64?

I have tried the netflix-desktop-0.2.2-1.fc18.noarch rpm and manually installed
silverlight with:

WINEARCH=win64 WINEPREFIX=/home/jcasale/.netflix-desktop wine Silverlight.exe /q

as well as the automated installer from http://sourceforge.net/projects/postinstaller/
ang both kill my login session when attempting to play a selection.

Thanks!

I don't think the particular desktop environment in use at the time will
have much if any effect on the success of Netflix in Fedora. That said, I'm
running Xfce.

What desktop are using? I was tempted to try another hoping that was the only issue.
Maybe you can save me the grief.

Thanks for the follow up,

Same thing happens to me. I can run netflix-desktop from the Ubuntu PPA on
this same hardware in Debian Wheezy, but my results match yours with the
Fedora package.
