Tomeu, for what it's worth I don't think this is anything todo with  
Flash/Gnash incompatibility. The current eatboom SWF (and FLA source)  
is simply not quite working (likely related to the quick change they  
made for it to run outside of the rest of their system). I've tried  
with a number of Adobe Flash player versions and plugins, including  
your current gnash rpms, and they all fail to progress in the same way.

After bin hexing the binary files to work out what version they were  
created with, you will need to have the Adobe Flash 9 IDE to debug  
this code – my last $$$ upgrade was for 7, so I can't help debug the  
current FLA from the git rep.

P.S. Sorry if I'm repeating myself, there have been some off list  
emails and I'm loosing track of what I've reported to whom.
