Same problem - but with Ubuntu 11.10 and adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.233-0oneiric1. My CPU is an AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+ and I believe this problem is because the packaged version of the plugin .so file was compiled with sse2 instructions, which are not present on this class of CPU. I have seen the same problem on several other distros. Until Adobe fixes this (which seems to be questionable) the solution is to make available the most recent version of the plugin compiled without the sse2 compile flag. Because of other security issues with the plugin, this might be an older 11.2 or maybe even a newer 10. version.
My symptom is simply that any web page with flash content has a plain gray box in Firefox. In Chromium, it asks for permission to run the plugin, but clicking "yes" has no effect. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992242 Title: I AM RUNNING VERSION 11.10. and i cannot play anything on you tube.seems like my flash player is gone after a recent update.pls help To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/992242/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
