Flash and Firefox

Hi guys,

The flash has recently started playing up on my Firefox. Not sure what caused it. I purged and reinstalled both.
Possibly latest flash update. It works fine on other browsers.

Any thoughts please ?

Have you checked for 'flash' add-ons for Firefox?

You mean from the repository or add-ons in the Firefox ?
I checked both and all seems to be fine.

Video from youtube works fine but for example file uploaders on flash and other flash features don't work at all

if there are any specific packages that you have in mind pls drop me a line and I will check.

Hi birkopf,

make sure you have the "Medibuntu Repo" active and install the non free codecs pack, it may help with video playback:

Code:: sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs

See post install guide for info on Medibuntu repo:

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2054

It might also be a dependency issue, try forcing an update with the terminal command:

Code:: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -f

Hope it helps.

Regards Wolfman
