Flash and Linux

Hey,
Lately, I've been having problems accessing various websites,
due to the incompatability of my old and now redundant
flash-player.
I've decided to update;Reached the download page for Linux,
as expected.Got the archive;And now, the "climaxing point" if you
will:
When try to install, it won't adhere, as it claims that the
folder I specify for copying the files, is invalid.
I've tried everything, but to no avail.
Another note: I've used the installer provided with the
package.
Thank you,
Thanks,
Daniel
P.S
As the title states, I am using a Konqueror browser, that
arrives with the "KDE" system.Also, I toured the website of the
distributor, but unfortunatly, it holds no value.

Can you paste the exact error text/install log? It sounds
like the installer is trying to write files to a folder which the
user running it does not have the relevant perms to.
Also, which distro are you using, and have you tried the RPM
(if RPM is available on your platform)?
On my distro (OpenSUSE 10.2) there is a non-OSS repository,
and Flash was installed and is updated for me. It works perfectly
in Firefox for me, but although Konqueror picks up the plug in
installation and knows where the objects are on the screen, I just
see a grey square. I use Firefox as my main browser, so I've not
really looking into why it doesn't work.

32-bit flash and java plugins freeze firefox and gnome on 64-bit linux

I have installed FC13 64-bit and am running 32-bit firefox 3.6.8 so that I can run flash plugin.
When I start 32-bit firefox 3.6.8 and go to site with flash or java applet, firefox locks up my gnome desktop necessitating a reboot of my computer.
Firefox 3.6.8 32-bit
Flash 10.1r82
Java jdk 1.6.0_15 32-bit
I have used a similar configuration on 32-bit FC13 with 32-bit Firefox 3.6.8 and everything works fine. No lockups.

Hi!
I finally solved this problem. The 32-bit libflashplugin required a 32-bit libcurl library that is not installed by default on 64-bit linux systems (at least not on Fedora). Once I installed 32-bit libcurl libs, flash and java plugins starting magically working.
In my opinion, 64-bit Fedora has done a poor job with 32-bit compatibility viz a viz 32-bit libs. I will submit an improvement ticket to Fedora folks about installing more 32-bit libs on 64-bit distros.

Since I upgraded to 7.01 (linux xubuntu) firefox seems to crash but only when on pages that have something to do with Flash. I purged flash and reinstalled and this seemed to fix it, but it's happening again now. Is there something I can do to fix this?

I have Linux Xubuntu.
I had 11.04, but upgraded to 11.10.'''bold text'''
I never had a problem with firefox until I upgraded to firefox 7. I've always made changes to about:config, and have gone through my changes and none are related to this.
I've just checked about:crashes and I've had 34 crashes since upgrading on 11.10.11
I seemed to fix it on the 13th, as it didn't crash until the 17th, and this was done through purging flash, and then reinstalling the necessary packages.

I fixed this problem by turning off hardware acceleration. At the time I also downgraded my flash to 10 (instead of 11).
This option isn't available any more. But turning off hardware acceleration has seemed to fix it.

Bios Flashing and Recovery

BIOS FLASHING
We do not recommend using the MSI LiveUpdate tool to update your BIOS! It may be okay for updating your drivers, but please do not use it to flash the BIOS in Windows!
Windows-based flashing - If you REALLY insist on flashing the BIOS under Windows, if you encounter any error during flashing, whatever you do, DON'T restart your PC! Try again until the flash is successful, otherwise your board will not start! Disable any anti-virus program (along with any other programs) prior to flashing.
Boards with built-in M-Flash function - While M-Flash work's properly most of the time, it has still proved to be less reliable than the forum tool / manual flash.
Before flashing your BIOS, you must ensure your system is fully stable! Any instabilities can cause a bad flash and create an expensive paper weight. Included with the forum flash tool is MEMTEST, we recommend running this for 2 or more passes prior to a flash.
If you do not understand what your BIOS is, or what it does, please read: >> BIOS. What it is, and all you need to know <<
Our first choice we recommend you use is our own USB flashing tool, developed by Svet.
It is important to note, that the only way to flash the ME extension of the BIOS of modern Intel boards is through the use special processes. The bios versions posted by moderators here: >>BIOSes<< include the additional files to accomplish this. These bios are all official and are directly from MSI.
>>>MSI Forum HQ USB Flashing Tool<<<
If you are unable to use the MSI HQ USB BIOS Flashing Tool
>>How to create a dos bootable USB stick>>
It is important to note that if any BIOS, EC FIRMWARE or any other type of FIRMWARE downloaded from MSI for a manual flash contains an BAT file it must be used. Not doing so will cause the flash to fail and require RMA.
For Intel Users, flash via FPT
Socket LGA 1150 : >>ME 9 FPT files & Instruction>>
Many of the bios versions posted here: >>BIOSes<< Contain a .bat file. All you need to do is extract all of the contents of the archive into the root directory of a DOS bootable USB stick and run the bat file from pure DOS.
Socket LGA 1155 & 2011: >>ME 7&8 FPT Files and instruction<<
Linux users
See this topic: >>Flash your BIOS, the Linux way! [beware the dangers!!]<<
Modified and BETA BIOSes
Use only at your own risk! All BETA BIOS versions posted by the moderators of this forum are directly from MSI and will not effect your warranty.The use of user modified BIOS versions may damage the board and may void your warranty. Exercise extreme caution in regards to user posted BIOS versions. Please also be aware that MSI and this forum can not be held responsible if you trash your mobo by using a modded, beta or otherwise incorrect BIOS.
WHEN IT ALL GOES WRONG...
BIOS RECOVERY
In many cases, provided the 'bootblock' of your BIOS is not corrupted during a bad flash, the BIOS can often be recovered by following the recovery procedures detailed below. NOTE: this recovery method should not be followed for normal practice of updating your BIOS!
For Modern MSI Systems, refer to:
<<Multi-Bios Equipped Mainboards>>
<<Single-Bios Equipped Mainboards>>
Legacy Systems:
For Award BIOS
Make a bootable floppy disk*
Copy the Award flash utility & BIOS file to the said floppy disk
Create an autoexec.bat with "Award_Flash_Utility BiosFilename" in the content (e.g. awdfl823K w6378vms.130)
Sample on how to create an autoexec:
a. On Windows, open the notepad
b. On the notepad, write "awdfl823K w6378vms.130" (without the " ")**
c. Save the file as autoexec.bat
Boot up system with the said floppy (it will take less than 2 minutes before screen comes out)
Re-flash the BIOS & reboot.
*Need a bootable floppy disk? Look here: http://www.bootdisk.com
**Make sure you enter the correct filenames for your flasher program and BIOS ROM file!
For AMI BIOS
Rename the desired AMI BIOS file to AMIBOOT.ROM and save it on a floppy disk. e.g. Rename A569MS23.ROM to AMIBOOT.ROM
Insert this floppy disk in the floppy drive. Turn On the system and press and hold Ctrl-Home to force update. It will read the AMIBOOT.ROM file and recover the BIOS from the A drive.
When 4 beeps are heard you may remove the floppy disk and restart the computer.
For new boards with AMI BIOS core 8 (4MB)
Discovered by Jack The Newbie:
Of course, the steps are similar to the standard AMI BIOS Recovery Procedure for internal floppy drives (rename corresponding BIOS File to AMIBOOT.ROM, hit CTRL + HOME after starting the system).
What has to be done (tested on P45 Platinum):
1. An optical SATA Drive needs to be connected to one of the Intel ICH10R SATA ports. {After a lot of testing, I found that it does not work with the same optical drive connected to the SATA Ports hosted by the secondary JMicron Controller. Also, using an optical drive on the JMicron IDE/PATA port does not help either.}
2. A proper BIOS File has to be renamed to AMIBOOT.ROM and burned on an empty CD.
3. CMOS-Clear with main A/C power cable removed from PSU has to be performed. {If this step is not done, the system will reboot after pressing CTRL + Home and will not proceed with recovery procedure.}
4. Press CTRL + Home to trigger BIOS Recovery. -> The system should enter BIOS Recovery Routine. {Will basically work with both USB & PS/2 keyboard. However, a PS/2 Keyboard is recommended as the system will respond earlier to PS/2 Keyboard than to USB Devices.}
What should happen now:
1. After pressing CTRL + HOME the LED Status should change to "Intializing Hard Disk Controller" and there should be access to the optical drive connected to the Intel ICH10R SATA ports.
2. It can take up to 30+ seconds until the BIOS File that was renamed to AMIBOOT.ROM is found. {Drive Bay can be opened to try a different CD without turning off or restarting the system.}
3. When the system finds the BIOS File, LED Status will change to "Testing RTC" and there should be a message on the screen indicating that the Flash Recovery Procedure has started.
4. Since the BIOS File is 4MB in size, it will take a while until the BIOS is actually reflashed.
Its also possible that BIOS recovery on boards with AMIBIOS8 can be done using a FAT-formatted USB stick, containing the renamed BIOS file. Be warned, in some circumstances it may take several moments before recovery procedure actually begins. See Bas' reply below for further information.
BIOS recovery on Wind netbooks
See this post here:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=130509.msg982711#msg982711
BIOS recovery on non-UEFI notebooks
In order to recovery this type of system you will need an FAT32 formatted USB stick.
Download the applicable bios from MSI's website and rename this bios.
It must be re-named to either AMIBOOT.ROM or xxxxIMS.ROM / xxxxAMS.ROM You may need to try each way to determine which one is necessary.
Then place the renamed bios onto the root directory of the FAT32 formatted USB stick.
Now you are ready to cover the Notebook.
To do this, remove the AC power cord and battery. Once that has been completed, install the USB stick you prepared earlier.
Now, apply AC power (leaving the battery disconnected) and turn on the notebook. Recovery should begin after 5 minutes.
IF ALL ELSE FAILS...
Locate the BIOS chip on your mainboard. If it is soldered directly to the PCB like...
...then you have no choice but to return the board to your supplier, or to MSI, for replacement.
To request an RMA from MSI, open a support ticket at https://register.msi.com/ocss/
If your BIOS chip is in a socket, like...
...then you may be able to source a replacement BIOS chip, either from MSI, or from a website such as www.badflash.com
Updated 11/21/2013, original post by Stu

A.) Download >>this<< bios archive and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
B.) Download and install the >>MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<< .
C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
F.) Boot to the USB from working bios B.
G.) Once it booted successfully switch to bios A without powering down or rebooting
H.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash bios A with desired version

How do I Install Adobe Flash on Linux

Ok well...
My uncle just gave me this Linux computer and to do something i needed to update my flash. So i deleted it through the software center and I've tried to many things to try and re install it but nothing has worked. I know little on using Linux also and i don't know what version of this operating system i have.
So in short I need help to learn how to install Adobe flash on Linux.
Oh I know whatever thing I'm using is called Ubuntu if that helps at all.

Slow download on Mac and Linux using sockets

We have a need to download as much as possible for a couple seconds using sockets, and we have noticed that Adobes flash player on Mac and Linux are slower then Windows while we get good results on all tree OS using Goggles flash player in Chrome.
Our setup, client side, is a 1 Gbit/s internet connection throttle by a 100 Mbit/s switch. On the server side, we have an Apache web server (during testing) on a 1 Gbit/s internet connection.
For testing purposes, we download as much as possible of a 2 Gb big file for approximately 10 seconds. After we connect to the server, via a socket, we send an http request to start downloading the file. Using bytesAvailable, we get the number of bytes downloaded every half second, calculate the average speed for that half second and store that value in an array. After 20 times, we stop downloading and close the socket connection. Finally we calculate the average download speed of the 20 measurements.
All tests are preformed on version 11.6.602.180 except for Adobe Flash player on Ubuntu were the 11.2 r202 version. Adobe Flash player on Firefox 19.0.2 (other browsers were tested with similar results) and Google Flash player on Chrome 26.0.1410.43. Each OS/player was tested 5 times and presents the average.

function timeMeasurement():void {
    receivedData = socket.bytesAvailable;
    var varJunk:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
    while (socket.bytesAvailable > 4){
        socket.readBytes(varJunk);
    var split:Number = new Date().time - startTime;
    var speed:Number = receivedData * 8 / ((new Date().time - startTime) / 1000);
    startTime = new Date().time;
    downloadList.push(speed);
    receivedData = 0;
function timeMeasurementComplete():void{
    var len:int = downloadList.length;

    downloadResult = sum / len;
    socket.removeEventListener(Event.CONNECT, connectHandler);
    if(socket.connected){
        socket.close();
In further investigation we built an easy Flash based latency meter. We download a small txt-file, measuring the time between just before we send http-request and until we receive a response from the web server.
We have the setup as for the speed tests, but we do this 5 * 20 times with each OS/player.

    str += "\n";
    socket.writeUTFBytes(str);
private function socketDataHandler(event:ProgressEvent):void{
    var latecy:Number = new Date().time - nStart; // latency in ms
Using a packet analyzer (Wireshark) on the OS X/Adobe player, the time from http-request is sent to data is received is approximately 2 ms. An ack is sent less then 0.04 ms after the packet is received. Using the socketData event to send a new http-request, just after we measure the time for the last package, can see event created delays. We have a delay between 64 and 67 ms compare that to OS X/Google player with between 1 and 3 ms delay.
Note: When playing around a timer, that fired a number of times during parts of a large number of latency measurements, we notice that measurements when the timer was running were better. Testing having a empty timer firing as fast as possible constantly during both download and latency measurements we got significantly better results on OS X/Adobe player, although not good. Average download 31,82 Mbit/s and average latency 16,59 ms.

Bumping this topic again as it's still sort of bugging me, but the problem has been isolated to a few certain sites. On some i get the maximum speed and on others i get snailspeed. One of the slow ones unfortunately is basically anything that has to do with Apple....So all Quicktime movie trailers, iTunes stuff, movies etc are slow, except podcasts that are German. I'm downloading the 30 day trial of iWork and i'm getting whopping 19,2KB/s, when i should be getting about 1300KB/s. You can just imagine the frustration:/
I'm just wondering am i alone on this or is anybody else excperienceing similar? And as usual, on windows i'm getting full speed all the time, anywhere, grrrr....!

Does ipad 3 support adobe flash and other various video formats?

does ipad 3 support adobe flash and other various video formats? Thanks/////!

Flash is not a video format. Flash is a platform that consists of a scripting language, and plug-in or application that presents a canvas and resources to run the scripts. It is possible for Flash to load video and play them in the canvas, but the video itself is a separate resource. Flash became a popular mechanism for video plaback mostly because the plugin was available for multiple browsers and the video codecs that Flash could load were consistent across multiple platforms, which made coding easier. It also made it simpler to add advertising overlays (especially before CSS3), and it was also a popular mechanism to distribute viruses.
In November of 2011, Adobe stopped development of and licensing of the use of Flash on mobile platforms, citing that HTML5 makes the primary uses for Flash obsolete. There is no version of Flash for iOS, or new or future versions of Android.
Adobe further indicated that they will be phasing out Flash plug-in support as well (such as the plugins used in Desktop web browsers), instead aiming to make Flash applications stand-along applications running on the desktop. No time table for that has been set, though they've just recently phased out Linux development. However, Flash is being actively developer for native applications and Adobe makes Flash Builder and AIR that allow you to make native applications for iOS and Android using the Flash development tools.
With regard to video formats... iOS natively supports MPEG-4 and various profiles thereof, and it supports the use of the HTML5 <video> tag to embed video in pages and in applications that leverage the WebKit environment to implement their UI. There are also apps that display other video formats.

Differences on Windows and Linux JVM about java.util.zip package

Hello, there!
I need some help if someone else has already face this problem.
I have a Java server that process the bytes of a SWF File stored in the server and ouptut it to the user through a Servlet. The file was decompressed and re-compressed using the java.util.zip package (Deflater/Inflater).
Everything works fine on Windows Server 2008 server. But now we need to migrate the server to Linux. The problem is that when I test the website now, the file seens to be corrupted.
What really intrigues me is that everything runs normal on Windows Server configuration, when changed to Linux, the final file seens to be corrupeted... what could possible be the cause? Is there any difference between java.util.zip package on Window and Linux JVM?
My Windows Server is:
. Windows Server 2008 (6.0 - x86)
. Apache 2.2.11
. Tomcat 6.0.16.0
. Java JDK 1.6.0_12-b04
My CentOS Server is
. CentOS 5.4 (2.6.18-164.15.1.el5 - i386)
. Apache 2.2.3
. Tomcat 6.0.16.0
. Java JDK 1.6.0_12-b04
Please, if someone could give me a lead, I would appreciate very much!
Thank you all in advance,
CaioToOn!

Thank you for the answer, but no. The path is correct.That's not what he meant. Zip file/directory entries are supposed to use / as the path separator. It is possible to use \ but such Zip files will only work under Windows. You may have erred here.Ohhh, I had really missunderstood what Ray said. But, I still think that this is not the problem, since the ZIP is a single SWF file generated by Flex SDK 3.4 and compressed in the ZLIB open standard (as in page 13, at [http://www.adobe.com/devnet/swf/pdf/swf_file_format_spec_v9.pdf|http://www.adobe.com/devnet/swf/pdf/swf_file_format_spec_v9.pdf] ). This is how Flash Compiler compress the files.
jschell wrote:
If the above suggestions do not solve the problem...Specify in detail with the exact steps used how you determined that it was corrupted.The reason why I believe the SWF is getting corrupted is that when it is loaded by Flash Player (in the client-side) the Player throws a VerifyError: Error # 1033. The [documentation says (see error 1033)|http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS3LCR/Flash_10.0/runtimeErrors.html] that this error means that the SWF file is corrupted.
As I said, what intrigues me is that this work perfectly in a Windows Server 2008 server. I just had setup a CentOS server and deployed the application. The client-remains unchanged, so why could the result change?
raychen wrote:
I would remove the side effect you are doing and send the file straight through, with decompress and compress, the servlet. It is more likely that you have a bug in your swf processor than the zip library.
I had already tried it when first coding, in Windows Server 2008, it had not worked.
Thank you all for the help.

My MacBook was acting weird so I restarted it and when I login a white screen flashes and goes back to the login page. Help?

My MacBook was acting weird like sometimes I would log on and I wouldn't be able to type my password for a couple seconds,but it usually logged in after that. Then I left my computer open after installing the recent update after that all my applications were not responding. So I shut it down, when I turned it back on about an hour later it went to this loading screen and then to the login like usual. After I tried logging in a white screen flashed and it went back to the login/ password screen like nothing happened. Any ideas on what happened and what I can do to fix it?

Reinstall OS X;
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Adobe 'fixes' for Flash and Dreamweaver

According to what I've been reading, Adobe added fixes to
Dreamweaver 8.02 to deal with the Active Content problem created by
Microsoft when Flash animations are embedded in web pages. Since I
have an earlier version of Dreamweaver and Flash and am having
problems like everyone else with that issue, would some 8.02 user
kindly inform me if this is indeed the case, and what does one do
in the new version to ensure Flash active content runs as intended?
Is it something that one must still manually add to the code in an
.html file, is the correction added automatically, is there an icon
to press....just how is the new feature/fix used and incorporated?
I'd like to know before considering an update. Thank
you..............frank

http://www.adobe.com/support/dreamweaver/downloads_updaters.html#dw8
Basically after you update if you add a flash file you get
this code added to the html file:
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
and that folder (Scripts) and (fileAC_RunActiveContent.js)
are automatically created with your project. When you import a swf
file the code that is automatically generated is also updated with
a snippet of code to fix the AC issue:
<script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0','wid th','404','height','368','src','~movies','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.macrom edia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','~movies'
); //end AC code
</script><noscript>
You dont really have to do anything other then remember to
upload the scripts folder to your server when you publish.

Flash and Fireworks combination

Macromedia MX: I am working on an image in Fireworks and
would like to incorporate a flash movie into this image so that I
can put it into Dreamweaver for my website. A quick example of the
image is a square inside a square (kinda like a TV set). Is there a
way to layer the Flash movie into the Fireworks image so that the
Flash movie plays inside the inner square but is not visible on the
outer square? (since it would overlap somewhat) Would I import the
image from Fireworks to Flash and work on it there, or import the
Fireworks image into Dreamweaver and insert the Flash movie there?
I am not sure how to go about this task. Thanks for any
suggestions.

P-C-Surgeonz;
You can't "layer"a flash swf into an image, but you can
"insert" the
image and flash into your html separately using
dreamweaver--but IMO
importing the png fireworks png into flash, and just
embedding the flash is
easier. -Tom Unger

Question regarding Oracle and Linux on VMware

Hello,
I carefuly read the paper on Oracle and Linux on Your Own VMware and I'm missing a point.
The paper explains how to start a cluster on a single host in a single Linux VM on VMware.
So, there are 2 instances of Oracle 10g DB on the same Linux VM inside VMware. What does allow that?
Is it possible to run 2 instances on any (single) Linux box, or is VMware required? If VMware is not required, why this complication in that paper? If VMware is required, what does it bring that make running 2 cluster instances on the same host possible?
Many thanks for your help.

I have an oracle database (10.2) and I have a query that needs to compare data on the Oracle database to data on a MS SQL server DB. I'm using a DB Link between the two databases.
How would I compare the date fields?
I have a table that has a date as one of the fields and I need to restrict the records where the date is equal to the date on SQL, however the formats are different:
My query is as follows:
SELECT mkt_css_name,
pmv_rqst_corp_id,
pmv_rqst_source,
'G',
pmv_css_acct_no,
eq.start_date
FROM power_move@cmdt,
enroll_que@tcis eq,
marketer@cmdt
WHERE eq.css_account_number = pmv_css_acct_no
AND eq.requestor_type = 'P'
AND eq.status IN ('A','P','G','S')
AND eq.marketer_id = mkt_seq_no
AND pmv_service_type IN ('G','D')
And Pmv_Gas_Mktr_No = Eq.Marketer_Id
AND pmv_received_timestamp= eq.enroll_date ;
The problem is that the date is stored in Oracle in the following format: DD-MON-YYYY and in SQL as 'YYYY-DD-MM HH:MI:SSSSSS'
for example: Data in Oracle would be 27-JAN-2012 and in SQL as 2012-01-27 00:00:00.000
I get an error when I compile.
How do you reconcile the formats when the syntax is different between databases?
Thanks, SeanDATE datatypes do NOT have any "format"
DATE datatype is stored in internal binary notation.
use TO_CHAR to display, present & compare the DATE datatypes
