Problem solved, sorry for the noise.

In case one is interested in the solution: The flash setting menu only works in full screen mode! Then it is possible to untick the box "hardware acceleration". After that everything works.

Dear arch users,

I'm using arch linux x86_64 (kernel 2.6.38), Firefox 5.0 and the Adobe Flash Plugin 10.3.162.29 64bit support (according to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/). My problem is that I can view flash videos in Firefox in normal mode, but in full screen mode the videos slow down (and the CPU usage rises much). A half year ago everything worked fine, but after some updates it won't work anymore. I also tried a kernel/firefox downgrade without success. I suspect that it has to do with the hardware acceleration settings in the flash menu (right click on flash video). Here hardware acceleration is enabled and I can't disable it, since the mouse and keyboard simple don't work on the flash settings menu.

Is there another way to disable hardware acceleration? Or any other hints?

Thanks,
Benjamin
