Thanks, but as advised in the bug reporting guidelines
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs) this would be more
appropriate as a support request, so I'm going to close it.
In future, please ensure that you have a look at the guidelines before
opening a bug report (particularly the part about the use of Apport
being mandatory for reporting Firefox bugs). We provide a link to the
guidelines on the bug submission form

Title:
Chrome updated, now flash doesn't work in Firefox
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I have an AMD Athlon XP-M 1900+ with 726MB memory, video through a
geforce 5500 card, NVidia driver version 173. I'm running under
Kubuntu 10.04 32 bit, KDE V4.4.5, Linux version 2.6.32-41-generic.
Thursday of last week, (28/JN/2012), Google Chrome updated. After
that, Chrome wouldn't run; it started loading when I clicked on its
icon, the mouse pointer turned into a bouncy Chrome icon, its bar
appeared in the task manager panel, then the mouse pointer reverted
and the bar disappeared and the Chrome window never opened. Much worse
than that, when I loaded Firefox, (V13.0.1, my usual browser - I just
keep Chrome for the occasional thing Firefox can't do), Flash wouldn't
work. For instance, when I try to play a Youtube video, all I see is a
black square that will allow me to block that video and nothing else.
I've tried other Flash applications, none of them work.
I have Flash Aid 2.2.3 installed in Firefox. I tried to use that to
update the flash player, both to the stable and beta versions of
Adobe's player; no joy. I tried un-installing and re-installing
Chrome, (I accidentally installed Chromium instead and it won't play
Flash apps either), and my flash player using apt-get in several ways;
no joy. I tried installing Gnash using KPackageKit, (because I could);
no joy.
What do I need to do to get flash apps to play again? (Please note
that I'm not an advanced user, I'll need some hand-holding on this.)
