[SOLVED] Flash conflicts with pulse

A while ago, I posted this:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=102976
Basically, I couldn't play movies in totem or listen to music with rhythmbox or banshee. At the moment I thought it was simply a pulseaudio problem or misconfiguration, but it "fixed" itself so I closed that topic. However, I started experiencing this again, and now I know the reason. Flash doesn't play along well with pulse. I can't play simultaneosly sound with flash and anything else, and when I listen something with flash, I cant listen sound (or watch videos) anywhere else until I close the browser.
Googling this, I found out that I need libflashsupport-pulse, which is present in AUR, but I can't install it because it requires flashplugin, which I haven't been able to find.
I have nspluginwrapper-flash from AUR to provide flash.
Anyone has this same issue? How can I solve it?
Cheers!

Everything you need to get flash working properly is in the repos, make sure you have the following packages installed (you will need to activate the multilib repo):
pulseaudio, lib32-pulseaudio, alsa-lib, lib32-alsa-lib, alsa-plugins and lib32-alsa-plugins.
Try using this /etc/asound.conf
pcm.!default {
type pulse
ctl.!default {
type pulse
and everything should work fine, at least it works for me™.

  • [SOLVED]"fontconfig conflicts with fontconfig-ubuntu" and other issues

    Almost every program I have has stopped working. If I run a program from a terminal (one of the virtual terminals, gnome-terminal wont work either), they either complain about not being able to find libpng or libjpeg. I read the news posting about these and some forum posts, but none of them mentioned people having problems. What I understood from reading is that I just need to update my system.
    This is where the problem lies. I cannot run "pacman -Syu" as usual. When I do, I get the following error:
    fontconfig conflicts with fontconfig-ubuntu. Remove fontconfig-ubuntu?
    If I answer yes, I get:
    error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
    :: kdelibs: requires phonon
    :: cairo-ubuntu: requires fontconfig-ubuntu>=2.6.0
    :: libxft-ubuntu: requires fontconfig-ubuntu
    If I answer no, I get:
    error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
    error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
    :: fontconfig: conflicts with fontconfig-ubuntu
    Either way, nothing is upgraded. How can I resolve this, as well as the libpng/libjpeg issue? I cleaned my cache and tried re-installing them, but it didn't help.

    Alright I installed fontconfig-ubuntu from the AUR and that resolved my initial conflict. It started complaining about gtk-qt-engine and kdelibs and they weren't depended on by anything so I just removed them (I assume I can re-install them later) and now my system upgrade is underway. Hopefully things will be fixed when it finishes.
    Does anyone know what caused this and whether I can avoid similar issues in the future?
    It happens because you are using a modified version of fontconfig (the ubuntu one). When a new version of fontconfig reaches [extra], pacman tries to update fontconfig (because fontconfig-ubuntu provides fontconfig, and fontconfig from [extra] is newer than the version you have installed) and finds that it conflicts with fontconfig-ubuntu.
    The way to go is the one that you have followed: when there is an update in fontconfig, update your fontconfig-ubuntu package to the latest in AUR (hopefully the same version as the new one in [extra], else you'll have to wait or modify the PKGBUILD) and then update the rest of the system.

  • Does New Flash conflict with Gmail & YouTube ???

    I installed the Master CS 5 Beta today and noticed two puzzling differences in my computer. (Besides requiring over 15 gigabytes of hard drive !)
    First - The Advanced document attachment features in Gmail and the ability to see progress bars when attaching files to messages, and attach multiple files at once to a Gmail message, stopped working. I just had a white box where the "Attach Files" link used to be. This feature, according to Gmail, requires Flash. Once I reverted to the basic feature (and turned off the Flash-dependant features), I was able to attach files again.
    Second - All YouTube videos, no matter where I link to them, appear now as just a vibrant pink box full of large pixels. Audio works but video is scrambled pink squares that move erratically.
    Anybody know if its Flash or some other part of the new master Creative Suite 5 that is not playing nicely with YouTube video ??
    VLC and QuickTime still work OK.

    Hi,

  • [SOLVED]Weird conflict with official packages and aur packages

    Hi. I have enchant-zemberek installed on my system. It is my package that i'm maintaining at AUR. Yesterday i tried to install poedit which depends on enchant. Weirdly altoguh enchant-zemberek provides enchant; pacman tried to remove enchant-zemberek and instead install enchant. Otherwise it won't let me install poedit. I have updated enchant-zemberek PKGBUILD and pacman let me install poedit without forcing me to install enchant. Here is what i have in my first PKGBUILD before update:
    replaces=("enchant")
    provides=("enchant")
    conflicts=('enchant')
    And after updating;
    replaces=("enchant=${pkgver}")
    provides=("enchant=${pkgver}")
    conflicts=('enchant')
    Now, i'm wondering while an AUR package have different package name than the official one why pacman tries to replace it? Why PKGBUILD needs package version in provides tag? Say, if i want to keep my own my-abc-1.0-1.i686.pkg.tar.xz but official package abc-1.1-1.i686.pkg.tar.xz released; must i keep my package only in Ignores array? Should i report this as a bug?
    Last edited by tarakbumba (2011-04-07 09:52:41)

    No, its not a bug. poedit depends on gtkspell which depends on enchant>=1.5.0 - your original custom enchant package did not provide any specific version of enchant, so pacman pulled in the repo package instead to satisfy the versioned dependency. As you have built your package with replaces=enchant, pacman also honours that.

  • (SOLVED) ssb conflict with wl

    There is tons of info about this but everyones solution is only a trade off for me.
    Module ssb is keeping wl from loading and I have no wireless.(bcm4328)
    If I rmmod ssb, then my wireless works but at the cost of my ethernet card.(bcm4401)
    The ethernet card, which uses the b44 driver, will not load without ssb present. Reactivate ssb, I now have a wired connection....bye bye wireless.
    Ive tried loading the modules in rc.conf in order starting with the wireless set, then the wired stuff, without rmmod'ing anything. Wireless indeed loads but no wired.
    I know what your thinking, disable one or the other and get on with my life, but I use a wired connection from time to time when there is no wifi around.
    This is a fresh build of Arch on a Dell laptop. I haven't even loaded Xorg yet. I just wanted to see if I could get it working before I put a desktop on it.
    I THINK that e1000 will work on the ethernet card as I remember a distro I was test driving a few months back loading it. I was actually a little suprised that it worked. Is it worth trying that? If so, how would you go about convincing Arch to load it in B44's place??
    Thanks in advance.
    Last edited by scottbg1 (2009-12-17 07:49:23)

    You know ewaller, i didn't try including ssb in the line up as if you load either b43 or b44, ssb would pop back up out of no where even after disabling it, so I didn't even think about trying that. Its worth a shot. I will try that when I get home.
    Tom, that is great news. I learned that I had the red headed step child of wireless cards from my very first linux experience. The joy I have experienced with Ndiswrapper is unparalleled to anything other than a close second to a root canal. I thought God was smiling on me when they came up with Broadcom-wl. After hearing your news, and if somebody would write something that would come close to Adobe photoshop or premiere pro I will eat my Vista DVD.
    This is my first experience with Arch. I wanted to see if I could configure a distro from the second floor up, and this has been perfect. Challenging but rewarding. I always thought RPM was the way to go, but I have been presently surprised at how easy this comes together once you learn the way of the Arch.
    Thanks for the help guys. I will post back with results if you care to know.
    Merry Christmas

  • Version 3 conflict with  Flash Drive

    Just upgraded to version 3 but resulted in conflict with Kingston flash drive. Firstly, Photoshop Album automatically opens up when you put the flash drive in the USB port (and you can't disable it). Secondly explorer (XP version) no longer recognises the flash drive. Reverted back to version 2 and flash drives worked fine. Adobe know there's an issue but couldn't solve it - anybody got a solution?

    Welcome to Apple Support Discussions.
    Your machine would probably benefit more from RAM upgrade than a upgrade to an SSD. Go here choose the iMac you have and you might be able to upgrade to 6 GB. The ONLY advantage of an SSD is loading your OS and opening and closing apps. Because Macs are designed to be left on 24/7 except if you are away for few days or longer the first point is moot. That leaves opening and closing apps, unless you are working in apps where you are opening a closing a lot of files all the time a SSD would be a waste of money.
    My recommendation, do an SMC and PRAM reset and see how it operates and if you still aren't satisfied upgrade to 6GB of RAM.

  • Is Flash Player 11.2.202.235  in conflict with Internet Explorer 9 ?

    I am using Windows Vista 32-bit in Dell Desktop. I have recently upgraded the Internet Explorer from Version 7 to 9 via 8. I have installed Flash Player 11.2.202.235 compatible with Windows Vista 32-bit pack 2. But I am experiencing that IE9 cannot function smoothly. I am apprehending IE9 is in conflict with Flash Player 11.2.202.235. If that is so, please advice me about necessary settings that I need to carryout to solve the problem.

    Maybe you should revert to IE8?

  • Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?

    I'm  using Firefox 3.6.8 (and sometimes IE 8.0.6001.18702IC) on Windows XP Pro, SP 3.
    For some weeks now, I have been unable to hear any sounds on anything Flash-based, from YouTube to games at MSN.com or embedded videos on any site using Flash.  Initially I had assumed it to be because of having QuickTime installed because I know QT likes to hijack everything.  I uninstalled QT (and Real Player) and Flash Player then reinstalled Flash Player (and Shockwave Player just in case) and guess what?
    Yup.  Nothing.  When I uninstalled everything, I used a program called Revo Uninstaller, which includes a registry cleaning option.  I then used Abexo and WinASO's registry cleaners to make sure I got everything else that even looked like QuickTime off my hard drive.
    When I reinstalled Flash, the following programs appeared in C:\Windows\system 32\Macromed\Flash:
    Flash 10i.ocx (10.1.82.76)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX (10.1.82.76)
    FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.82.76)
    genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll (10.1.82.76)
    NPSWF32.dll (10.1.82.76)
    KB931433
    FlashInstall
    Install
    Flashplayer.xpt
    When I check IE's "Tools" and look for add-ons, it says that Flash (Shockwave Flash) is enabled.  I even enabled the other Adobe add-ons for Acrobat and such just to be sure.  Firefox shows Shockwave Flash and Shockwave for Director both to be enabled.  The Flash control panel settings don't help: I have all sites set to store about 100 KB on my computer to make sure there's enough room for everything but still nothing.
    Before anyone asks, my audio drivers are up to date, thanks to the manufacturer's website.  I have DirectX 9.0c installed and everything else works fine.  I can play audio and video elsewhere with no problems.  It's only Flash that's showing me this trouble and there's no hint as to what else could be interfering with Flash.
    Any ideas?

    Well, great.  I tried the uninstall/reinstall before, but not with the uninstaller, so I was hopeful that this time might do it.  No such luck.  The video still plays, but no sound.
    All the sound settings are working with everything else from games to media players.  I set Windows' firewall to allow both the ActiveX and plugin for Flash, just in case.
    In the Flash folder, I now have:
    Flash10l.ocx (10.1.102.64)
    Flash Util10l_ActiveX (10.1.102.64)
    FlashUtil10l_Plugin (10.1.102.64)
    Genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
    FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll (10.1.102.64)
    NPSWF32.dll (10.1.102.64)
    And the setup and text files that went with 'em.
    I've also done a system restart since then and zip.
    I went through IE and Firefox and looked for any file associations (like .flv) that I could manually change over to using Flash, but no go.  The settings panels for Flash have all been set to allow YouTube specifically (as a test) and to allow 10KB of storage space for all affected sites.
    Now what?  I'm really not looking forward to a reformat and reinstall, but it's looking like that's what it's going to take.

    Subject: Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?
    Something is strange with your list of modules; you list FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.102.64), but this is really 10.1.85.3
    I recommend that you uninstall Flash Player completely (using http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html), then restart Windows, and delete all remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash.
    Next reinstall both ActiveX (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and the plugin (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe).

  • Flash play conflict with my website

    I use Mozilla Firefox as my browser since the security breach in I.E.  I also use Shutterfly to work on digital photo albums.  Shutterfly requires Adobe Flash Player to be able to load the digital books to work on.  I have no problem downloading and installing the flash player (which makes the photo books work fine).  However, as soon as the flash player is downloaded, all sorts of words in my personal website are underlined (very random), and then they create hyperlinks to ads.  I cannot have this happening in my website, so I've had to uninstall adobe flash player (done this twice now).  I can work on the photo books in I.E. but am preferring not to until the security issues are resolved.  I cannot find any information as to why very random words are being underlined in my website and how to make this not happen.  Has anyone seen such a conflict with their websites and adobe flash player?  Thanks for any assistance anyone can offer.

    It was happening on my personal website laurenajenkinshoffmeyer.com  But you will not currently see it, because when it happened, I uninstalled the flash player.  As long as it is uninstalled (in Firefox) you won't see the problem.  I do not have the problem using Internet Explorer but don't want to use that web browser due to current security issues.

  • Flash 9 Flip4mac conflict with Quicktime Pro

    Any one have this fun? I can't install Flip4mac without it conflicting and killing Flash 9/Quicktime movies in my browser (ala youtube). Seems to be since I installed Quicktime Pro. Running on an Intel MacBook Pro 10.4.10. Same problem with Safari of Firefox. Thanks - Eric

    Why would Flip-4-Mac conflict with flash/quicktime? Flip-4-Mac doesn't even play flash...
    Are you saying you can't view youtube videos?
    If so thry this:
    Go to your Quicktime Preferanes in the System Preferance panel. Click on the Advance tab. Click on MEMI button...scroll down to the very bottom of the list. Miscellaneous ... uncheck Flash media.
    And make sure you have the latest version of Flash too...Close out Quicktime and all browsers. Reopen the browser and try youtube again...

  • Unable to open Aperture 2 because it is apparently in conflict with an old trial version 3. Any tips how to solve this?

    I am unable to open my Aperture2.
    The following warning message shows on top of the ususl opening window:
    Quote
    The libraryin "users/pedro/pictures/Aperture 3 Trial Library2.aplibrary" cannot be loaded because it is from newer version of Aperture.
    Unquote
    It looks like some kind of conflict with an old trial version 3, to which I never upgraded.
    Any tips to help me solving the issue?

    Do you need to run Aperture 2, or do you need to open the "Aperture 3 Trial Library2.aplibrary"?
    If you only want to run Aperture 2, then launch Aperture by double-clicking your regular Aperture 2 library; this should open Aperture on the correct library. In Aperture 3 you also simply could hold down the options-key while double-clicking the Aperture Applications icon in the Dock - probably this works in Aperture 2 as well,
    But if you need to open your Aperture 3 trial library with Aperture 2, because you converted your Aperture 2 library to Aperture 3 format; there is no easy way to do it. The best would be to find a backup of your library from the time before you converted it. If you do not have such a backup, then the easiest way would be to upgrade to Aperture 3 at this point.
    I do not know enough about the Aperture 2 library format to be able to tell you how to manually downgrade an Aperture 3 library to Aperture 2 format.

  • Something conflicting with Adobe Flash that won't allow email attachments in gmail

    Something conflicting with Adobe Flash that won't allow email attachments in gmail
    I have been speaking with senior techs in the google forum, and they suggested I post here.  There is something about my computer settings or security software is  conflicting with Adobe Flash.
    I did a clean install of both Flash 10 and Firefox 3.5.7 (I uninstalled the previous versions).
    The problem is with gmail.  I get the error message when  attaching files:
    "Attachment failed. This may be due to a proxy or  firewall."
    Any ideas???
    Using Firefox 3.5.7
    Using MAC  OS 10.4.11
    Using Flash 10
    I do not have security software, proxy or firewall settings.
    I started a question in these forums:

    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/554629?

    So if your not using a Flash app, not running a flash program, and you are using a browser on a remote mailserver, why would you think Flash is the issue?
    Secondly if you are not using the Flash CS3/4 program somewhere in the loop, than you would be better served in the Flash Player forum, this is a Flash Developers forum. Sounds more like gmail may use some flash components to display something, but should not have an effect on file transfer unless your Flash settings deny it. You have to allow local content from being run with active x/flash.

  • Flash Player Conflict with OSX 10.4.11 ??

    Hi All! I recently tried to upgrade to new version of Flash Player 9. Install was successful, but I can't access any online Flash content. Tried to uninstall and reinstall several times, to no avail. Any suggestions for troubleshooting? Any other known software conflicts with Flash Player 9? Thanks for any suggestions you can offer! Sue

    Hello and welcome, there was once a problem/conflict with Quicktime. Sometimes Quicktimes preferences has it set up as the default viewer for flash content.
    To change this open Applications>System Preferences(or just click on it if it's in your dock) and click on QuickTime. From the tabs in the window select "Advanced".
    At the bottom of this window click on the "MIME setting..." button. A drop down list will appear. At the bottom is "Miscellanious" click the small triangle to expand it. In that list is "Flash media" UNcheck it. Click OK and restart your computer.
    Hope this helps...Cheers,
