[SOLVED] chromium-pepper-flash fails to install

I use chromium-pepper-flash and today there was an update, but the install script has errors.
Sorry for the locale, but summarized it said cat and sed didn't find a file.
Probably the chromium-pepper-flash.install cannot find the $_default as it says
[ -f etc/chromium-browser/default ] && _default='etc/chromium-browser/default'
[ -f etc/chromium-dev/default ] && _default='etc/chromium-dev/default'
[ -f etc/chromium/default ] && _default='etc/chromium/default'
Anyways the installation was successful.

Solved, must edit the path which is missing the first / like this
[ -f etc/chromium-browser/default ] && _default='/etc/chromium-browser/default'
^
[ -f etc/chromium-dev/default ] && _default='/etc/chromium-dev/default'
^
[ -f etc/chromium/default ] && _default='/etc/chromium/default'

[SOLVED] Both stable and unstable chromium-pepper-flash won't install

Hi all,
I just installed Chromium, but am unable to install Flash. It was recommended that I install pepper-flash rather than flashplugin, since the latter is deprecated. But there is a problem:
chromium-pepper-flash-stable won't install because the link to the package is invalid:
ERROR: Failure while downloading google-chrome-stable-31.0.1650.57-1.x86_64.rpm
chromium-pepper-flash won't install because the md5 checksum is invalid:
==> Validating source files with md5sums...
google-chrome-unstable_current_amd64.deb ... FAILED
LICENSE.txt ... Passed
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!
This leaves me with three questions:
Does this happen often, or is it a freak coincidence that both recommended Flash packages are broken on the first day I start using Arch?
I can probably find the proper package file for chromium-pepper-flash-stable, but what is recommended practice for installing it (if I am in a hurry, or just impatient)? Should I hack the PKGBUILD file myself?
Should I flag these packages as out-of-date in AUR?
Thanks!

Yes, edit the PKGBUILD yourself. Both the link and the checksum.
Have a look at the comments: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chro … mments=all Being broken is not an uncommon occurrence for this package.

[SOLVED] Chromium + pepper = Video @ double speed

I am using the latest stable chromium, with the pepper-stable package from the AUR recommended in the Chromium wiki.
I moved to Chromium as Flash is no longer being developed for Firefox....And Firefox 26 crashes a lot, and randomly, including with all plugins removed. So It's a problem right now.
As the subject mentions....I am getting weird video issues. Usually, the video plays back at double speed, with the associated spastic audio output. Here is an example: Ref: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smCQ2g9L7PU.
This used to play fine in Firefox with the old flashplugin.
In my porting process, here is what I did:
With no browser open:
a) "sudo pacman -Rs flashplugin"
a1) Verified that flash was no longer operating in Firefox.
b) "sudo pacman -S chromium"
c) "yaourt -S chromium-pepper-flash-stable"
d) In chromium: "chrome://plugins" to verify that flash wasn't showing up.
Arch x86_64 (current), NVidia GTX-660, using the nvidia drivers from Arch...extra. (rev 331.20) vdpau is installed in both the 64 and lib32 variants.
I have tried disabling hardware acceleration in the pepper-flash plugin, restarted the browser and retried. I have tried enabling hardware acceleration, restarted the browser and retried.
Playback seems unaffected in either scenario, and remains unusable.
Gnash has never performed properly for me in any scenario where I've tried it. So Gnash is not an option. Gnash has a long way to go until it is ready to be a good drop-in replacement for an official "flash plugin".
So for now, I have to use the smtube for smplayer to view YouTube/major news site videos properly.
I am requesting, please, some assistance in fixing my video playback issue in Chromium.
Sincerely and respectfully,
Dave
PS: I'm curious, why does the firefox community appear to be sitting on their hands when Adobe has made it clear for a long time that Adobe Flash for linux is being abandoned as of 01-JAN-2014? I would have expected some really heavy programming resources to be assigned to gnash to make it better, or write some sort of wrapper for the chromium pepper plugin....for official Adobe support.
Is there another reliable flash playback mechanism that I am missing all together?

I agree with ewaller (the new html5 player for youtube is good) but to answer your question I had a similar issue with pepperflash and if I recall correctly it was related to sound issues. I do not remember which package solved the issue but here is the alsa / pulseaudio packages I have installed:
$ yaourt -Ss alsa | grep installed

Chromium pepper flash jagged image/controls/text when fullscreen

Hi. I'm testing the chromium pepper flash and it seems to be more responsive and more faster than regular flash player. I'm no longer affected by this https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=155503 issue too.
But there is an issue. When I go fullscreen, for example, in youtube, I get jagged text and picture. Just like this:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/16222427/ARCH/ … 9%3A21.png
Maybe not the best example, because the artifacts are hard to see in this screenshot, but in motion it's pretty annoying especially in 720p+ videos. You can see that the font is jagged and the controls at the bottom look just like that. Anyone getting this too?
I've tried both packages that are in AUR. This occurs only when fullscreen.
I'm using XFCE, latest kernel from core repos, x86_64 and chromium from core repos. I tried chromium binary version from AUR and it didn't help.
Oh, and with regular flashplayer, it's fine, just a bit slower.
EDIT: this is a screen when watching 360p, looks even worse, looks like the picture is not stretched corectly.

Nobody? If it makes this more clear, that one could say that the image gets pixelated.

Chromium + pepper flash + pulseaudio = static/crackling noise.

With pulseaudio and chromium+pepper flash from the AUR I get static/crackling noise in the audio. If I disable pulse and just use alsa I don't receive any static/crackling noise... Is there any way to fix it?

Did you already play with the "tched=0 option" and the other pointers mentioned in https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=164959 ?

Flash failed to install

Hi Ruth,
The number one reason that the ActiveX installer fails to

registry. We have solved hundreds of these Windows system
permissions with Microsoft’s SubInACL tool.
Note: This is strictly for Windows IE, these issues do not
occur on other browsers such as Firefox.

Flash fails to install on vista

I'm getting so frustrated. I have tried eveything to download version 10 of the flash player and nothing seems to work. In the middle of downloading I get the error box that says it has failed to install. I've uninstalled, re-installed, reset the computer, turn it on safe mode. even the registry thing that run in the black box says windows does not recognize command and that didn't work either. What am I doing wrong?Am I stupid or something?

Ok, ok - calm down...
First thing you should try
Turn off User Account Control within the Control Panel, then try the install again.
If this works, turn UAC back on after successful installation.
If it does not work, please post back with more information, i.e. what browser you are trying to install it in.
P.S. I don't understand the "registry thing"; can you point me to where you found that?

[SOLVED]UEFI boot gives 'failed to install override security policy'

Hi, newb here who has hit a dead end quite early in the process of installing Arch.
When trying to boot Arch into EFI mode, it says
'failed to install override security policy'
Of course I did my research and it seems that only three other people on this planet have had the same problem, and their solutions do not work for me.
http://superuser.com/questions/615142/u … ity-policy
Overwriting EFI/boot/bootx64.efi with loader.efi enables me to see a menu where I can choose from booting Arch, UEFI shell v1 or UEFI shell v2. Still, selecting Arch results in a blank screen with two grey bars at the top and bottom of the screen, so not really not much help.
I'm not a UNIX nor an EFI wizard, so please bear with me. I'm a Windows user with some anecdotal Linux knowledge (I have installed Ubuntu countless times, wanted a bit of a challenge this time) who wanted to make the switch to the Linux ecosystem, but this error prevents me from doing so. I also tried to install rEFInd as suggested here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=174734
But I seem to be unable to boot into any UEFI shell v2, it's also printing the errors:
ASSERT_EFI_ERROR (Status = Not Found)
ASSERT C:\svn_code...and so on )
My Windows installation is on BIOS/MBR, so I cannot install rEFInd manually using Windows, and I also cannot use the v1 UEFI shell because of the lacking bcfg command. I don't know how to procede from here. My board is an AsRock P67 Extreme4 Rev 09 with a 2.10 EFI. This board doesn't even have Secure Boot if I'm correct, I also searched every possible submenu of the EFI for an option to disable Secure Boot, but haven't found anything.

I presume you are trying to use gummiboot?
Please post the contents of /boot/loader/loader.conf and also your gummiboot configuration file for your Arch system (if you are not using gummiboot post the config. files for whichever boot loader/manager you are using).
Load the Arch live ISO, mount all your partitions and `arch-chroot` into your system and then post the output of:
lsblk -f
# parted -l
# efibootmgr -v

[SOLVED] external USB HDD fails to install arch w/boot device ERROR

I've been working on installing arch linux via an external USB harddrive (specifically seagate free agent go 320GB) for 1 week now, and everytime I failed - until TODAY! thankfully I found this post, where user Dieter@be references this link, which displays BUG ID#17231 at the top titled "Can't boot LiveCDs 2009.08 (/dev/archiso doesn't show up)". the bug report states ::
I can't boot the LiveCDs 2009.08, neither netinstall nor core.
When it tries to access /dev/archiso it shows these messages:
:: Waiting for boot device ...
Waiting 30 seconds for device /dev/archiso ...
ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ...
Falling back to interactive prompt
You can try to fix the problem manually, logout when you are finished
ramfs$
reading further thru this bug report, I found a very insightful post by Heiko Baums (cyberpatrol) where he says the following, and I quote ::
Problem found. The link /dev/archiso wasn't created.
After
ramfs$ cd /dev
ramfs$ ln -s sr0 archiso
ramfs$ exit
it continued booting correctly.
And sg was also loaded after this. ;-)
as you see, the bug report was for the CD version, not the USB version - yet, my issue with the USB bootdisk was the same, (no matter which boot disk I tried = netinstall, core, .img, .iso, etc) meaning I got the EXACT same error = "ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ..." ! well, I figured that I'd try one of the new fancy ISOs found @ http://build.archlinux.org/isos/ - specifically I use/used archlinux-2010.03.04-netinstall-x86_64.iso.
upon running Unetbootin from windows 7, and choose to install the ISO archlinux-2010.03.04-netinstall-x86_64.iso to my first partition on my USB harddrive (that first partition being FAT32, and had already been set as bootable previously), that completed successfully. I rebooted, and choose to boot from USB drive, the ISOlinux bootloader came up as normal, I choose DEFAULT and off it went.... sure enough, it errored out at the same place as listed in the bug report ::
:: Waiting for boot device ...
Waiting 30 seconds for device /dev/archiso ...
ERROR: boot device didn't show up after 30 seconds ...
Falling back to interactive prompt
You can try to fix the problem manually, logout when you are finished
ramfs$
this time though, I issued the following 2 commands ::
ln -s /dev/sdb1 /dev/archiso
exit
from there, EVERYTHING worked as it should!
to recap: the solution for me was create a symbolic link pointing /dev/archiso => to my partition which held the archlinux netinstall (which is where I told Unetbootin to install it to)! done and done. I felt this needed to be posted here, as I could not find this solution after MANY google searches, archlinux wiki searches, forum searches, etc. honestly, I think it would be prudent to have this tidbit of information added to the Install from USB stick archwiki page as a side note to those that may run into this issue.
this is not the FIRST time I have run into this problem with a USB install of archlinux, but this is the FIRST time I found a fix! thanks to all the great posts I reference here, without this information I dont think I would have been able to install archlinux on my new alienware m11x laptop.
-peace-
PS: no amount of rootdelay=XX nor pmedia=usb nor usbdelay=XX would work in my above attempts either.

FAT16 here. Parted Magic sees my USB drive as sdd. I tried your way and surprise, surprise, it didn't work.
ln -sf /dev/sdd /dev/archiso
mount -t vfat /dev/archiso /bootmnt
mount : Invalid argument
I thought maybe you meant mount -f vfat /dev/archiso /bootmnt instead. I tried it too, it resulted in a kernel panic.
What else can I try besides installing from a IDE/SATA CD drive ? Because this issue is NOT solved. At least not for me. Wonder if "archlinux-2010.04.05-netinstall-i686.iso" from the here will solve it (really hope so).

Solved : 10.5 - Itunes Failed to Install

Hello. Im having this problem just now and now I managed to solved it
Goto : My Computer --> Unistall All "apple related named" ( I forgot to copy the name ) Uninstall all Apple name. And Try to install it again. It works for me and some of my friends

Try directly downloading the 10.5.3 Combo Updater directly.
Also, be sure to do the following before installing any system update:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) 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 installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Problems Viewing Pepper Flash Under chrome://plugins

Hello all,
After an update, my flash seems to be gone.
I downloaded the chromium-pepper-flash-stable and did 'makepkg', but I still get the warning message on some sites and
the enable flash plugin option does not show under chrome://plugins

There is no 'chromium-pepper-flash-stable' in the AUR anymore. It was renamed w/o the 'stable' part.
In any case, I think fungle may be on to something here... you may have built it, but did you actually install it?

Trouble installing pepper flash plugin for Chromium

Hello. I've been trying to install the pepper flash plugin for Chromium via the Chromium Plugins package in the AUR here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chro … per-flash/ . I successfully extracted the tarball, built the package and installed it using pacman. After restarting Chromium, however, the only new plugin I see is the Chrome PDF viewer; no pepper-flash plugin is visable. I thought about maybe installing the flash player that you can download from Adobe's website but I don't know if that would interfere with the plugin I should have already installed. Any advice on how to get this plugin to work in Chromium would be great. Thanks.

I have pepperflash installed on my chromium and it identifies itself as
Adobe Flash Player - Version: 13.0.0.214
Shockwave Flash 13.0 r0
Name: Shockwave Flash
Description: Shockwave Flash 13.0 r0
Version: 13.0.0.214
Location: /usr/lib/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so
Type: PPAPI (out-of-process)
This is in about:plugins url and is not an up-to-date version, but it works. I'll try updating to the newest version and see if it breaks things

Failed to install Flash Player 9 (tn_19167)

Suddenly I had a problem with FlashPlayer9 in IE7. In Firefox
all still worked fine.
Although I tried several things like: regular way of removing
flash player within Windows, the Adobe Flash uninstall-tool, 3rd
party software-cleaners (CCleaner, ATF-cleaner), un-/re-installing
IE7. I keep on getting the "Go to www.adobe.com/go/tn_19167"
message. But it all doesn't solve out my problems. I have no idea
what this could be at this moment. I don't have strange tools
running my system; I use F-Secure AV (for some weeks already, no
problems before).

How to solve the issue: "Failed to install NtCreateSection monitor" etc

I am a user of VM VirtualBox Manager
I have been searching for the solution for the above issue.
But I got nothing until now 22nd August 2014.
But after several trying several settings, I succeeded to start VM VirtualBox Manager without getting "Failed to install NtCreateSection monitor"
So I just want to share with others, and perhaps what I did above can solve the issue for others with similar problems
Here it is:
1. Try to change the display resolution to AUTOMATIC
2. and / or try to disable the extension packs
As for me, I only did no.1 only.
And also when I did that, I was still disabling my avast.
(Here I'm trying to give a solution of an issue, without following other's thread.)
Actually for me this was an idea, and thx to BluShadow, I know this thread belongs here as a discussion topic.

I received the above msgs just now (2nd time after yesterday as 1st time), and I could get rid of the error msg by doing the above steps once again.
The important thing is to change the display to another option.
eg. if your current display is "Automatic" then change it to "Hint" etc
if your current display is "Hint" then change it to "Automatic" etc, then you can start the virtual machine / HDD again.
Hope I can help you guys with the same problem.
Thx,
