Flash is enabled in Chrome. Are any of these packages known to break Flash support?
Is there any way I can bulk roll back upgrades to figure out which one might have broken it?

It wouldn't render any Flash videos at all. I uninstalled google-chrome and installed google-chrome-dev. Everything works fine now.

[solved] flash in firefox not working after pacman update

Hi everyone,
I updated my system today using pacman -Syu and now flash isn't working in firefox. In fact, opening a youtube video causes firefox to crash. Before the update it worked fine. I have flashplugin-11.2.202.406-1 installed. I don't know where to start to fix this.
I've already checked the about:plugins in firefox and it says that I have the flash plugin installed and its on always activate setting.
Does anyone know where I can start to look for errors?

[SOLVED] Thinkpad T430 brightness keys broken after firmware upgrade

Hi.
I've upgraded the firmware on my Thinkpad to version 2.51. Since that I'm unable to change the display brightness via the Fn-Keys on the keyboard. What still works is writing values to /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness but of course that's not how it should be.
Here's some dmesg output:
[ 7.638814] thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad ACPI Extras v0.24
[ 7.638816] thinkpad_acpi: http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/

[ 7.638818] thinkpad_acpi: Lenovo ThinkPad T430, model 2349D15
[ 7.639440] thinkpad_acpi: detected a 8-level brightness capable ThinkPad
[ 7.639547] thinkpad_acpi: radio switch found; radios are enabled
[ 7.639558] thinkpad_acpi: This ThinkPad has standard ACPI backlight brightness control, supported by the ACPI video driver
[ 7.639559] thinkpad_acpi: Disabling thinkpad-acpi brightness events by default...

[ 7.641012] thinkpad_acpi: Standard ACPI backlight interface available, not loading native one
[ 7.641156] thinkpad_acpi: Console audio control enabled, mode: monitor (read only)
Any idea why it's broken and how it can be fixed?
Thanks,
Julian

Awesome, the acpi_backlight=vendor kernel command line parameter actually fixed it.
Does anybody know what exactly has changed and why this in necessary now?
Update: If you do this, you'll get error messages like this in your log/dmesg every time you press a brightness key:
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: unknown possible thermal alarm or keyboard event received
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: unhandled HKEY event 0x6050
kernel: thinkpad_acpi: please report the conditions when this event happened to [email protected]
The kernel command line parameter acpi_osi="!Windows 2012" also works and seems to be the better way to fix this.
Bugreport at kernel.org: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51231
tl;dr: Firmware update introduced 101 brightness levels even though the hardware only supports 16 but Windows 8 requires this. Reducing or increasing the brightness by one doesn't change anything at all so the firmware will still report the old value as the new brightness thus it'll never actually change the brightness. But if you explicitly tell the firmware that you're not Windows 8, it will only report 16 brightness levels and everything works fine. Lenovo, seriously?

WAP4410N SSLv3 no longer supported in Chrome, Firefox

Hello all
I have a Cisco WAP4410N servicing a small office for drop-in technicians to connected to our LAN, no heavy traffic or fancy management set up, they just see it as a wireless access point they can connect to for internet and access some Samba shares.
Recently I've been getting errors in Chrome and Firefox that the SSL version used by the unit is no longer supported-
From Chrome (v 40.0.2214.111 m)-
A secure connection cannot be established because this site uses an unsupported protocol.
Error code: ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH
From Firefox (v 35.0.1)-
Firefox cannot guarantee the safety of your data on 192.168.128.1 because it uses SSLv3, a broken security protocol.
Advanced info: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap
The unit is running firmware version 2.0.7.4, released January 2014, is there any way around this SSL error? So far I've been able to log in to the unit using IE 11, but I'd prefer to fix the issue causing the SSL errors rather than use this as a work around. Has anyone else had to address this issue?

Hi guys,
issue is solved in firmware which was never released publicly - 2.0.7.6T1 or 2.0.7.6T2 (both Beta status). As those units are already EoL (which means that no new firmware is planned to be released) I would suggest you to open service request to Small Business Support Center (SBSC) and ask for latest beta firmware.

What a Shame. Flash could have been left in. Many older sites use it and will not be updated anytime soon if ever. Now we have to hack around to get it working ourselves.

MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8): can't update adobe flash - now Word, Chrome, etc. all crashing on startup

I am not computer savvy, so if you answer, please be slow and deliberate. thanks!
Was having Adobe shockwave/flash problems while running Chrome, which is not completely unheard of. Restarted my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8), which included a software update (though I'm not sure exactly what programs were updated).
Now Chrome will not run at all. Every time I start, it crashes immediately. Have tried SEVERAL times to trash/download it, but the same version seems to keep appearing in my Applications folder. Have also tried trashing the Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome folder to no avail. Appears back in its place after dragging it to the trash.
In addition, Adobe flash videos for Safari and Firefox (which I just downloaded as a tester) also will not work. Each attempt to update Adobe Flash also ends in a crash. And now I've discovered the same for everything Microsoft (Word, Excel, PowerPoint). The program shuts down and the Microsoft error message appears breifly, followed by the same crash "Mircrosoft Word Error Reporting Quit Unexpectedly" box.
Again, have tried several times to download Chrome & Adobe Flash to no avail. All system updates have been made to date. What to do next?

Has your computer started running slowly as well? Everything taking forever to work?
if so, this is the same type of issues I'm having.

Any workaround for loss of Flash support in QT?

I have a multimedia DVD that came with a textbook which uses QT for all of its multimedia support. Upon finding that some of the .mov files would not play, I investigated and found that those files use Flash for the video track.
After a bit of Googling, I discovered that Apple has eliminated Flash support from Quicktime, basically rendering this wonderful DVD useless.
I've attempted to play these flash-based .mov files in VLC, mPlayer and Realplayer. None of them will render the video animations.
Does anyone know of an application that will play these files? Has there been any official word from Apple as to whether the loss of Flash support is temporary or permanent?
Thanks in advance.

Inverted color on fullscreen flash vid, both chrom[e/ium] / firefox

I'm getting a "glitchy" fullscreen image for flash videos (TED, YouTube, Facebook). This occurs with chromium-browser-svn and Firefox 3.6. Both are up to date (I update regularly with pacman -Syu).
The minimized video looks fine but fullscreen view creates a video that has what looks like inverted pixels as well as an extremely wide format (only half or so of the video fits on my screen).
Are there suggestions of where I can check for this issue? Is it Xorg? Something with my video driver? What troubles me is that Firefox (at least used to) rely on a flash plugin, whereas Chrome has it built in... The fact that this occurs in both strikes me as odd.
Thanks,
John

Nokia lumia flash support

Hi,
I want to know whether the Nokia lumia phones support flash(eg-flash lite or full flash) in their web browsers?
Nokia E63-1, RM-437, 510.21.010
Nokia C5-00.2,RM-745,091.002
Solved!
Go to Solution.

No. Flash support will not be coming for the Lumia's or any other windows phone.
Abobe has abandoned further development of flash for mobile devices in favour of HTML5. The Lumia's browser supports HTML5.

Flash support and the iPhone

As a web designer and recent iPhone owner, I'm wondering about flash support for the iPhone. A device that is trying to be on the cutting edge would seem to need it.
As a flash designer I've got my fingers crossed. Great phone though... I'm posting this on it right now.
Thanks

This is probably the most anticipated feature. I have no doubt that Apple and Adobe are working together to "secure" a version of flash to work with the iPhone.
I'm sure the update will be upon us soon enough

pixelation problems occurs in my videos when using adobe flash but using chromes pepper flash no problemes so its definitely adobe problems on my WIndows 8.1

Problem is:
Flash Player for IE11 (which is the worst browser ever developed - BAR NONE) is a Microsoft product, when it comes right down to it.
Adobe writes the base code and yes, they do collaborate on updates for it, but the gang in Redmond alter the plug-in and add "proprietary" code before embedding it, and at that point it's "their baby".
There are two (2) registry keys - 1 for 32 bit IE and the other for 64 bit IE, as well as a KB patch that prevent all but the most experienced Windows users from ever touching the Flash Player plug-in for IE. So there's NO WAY you could have done a clean install of the ActiveX plug-in in Windows 8. Unless you're an uber-geek, you can only update it through Windows Update.
WIn 8 is an abomination and IE11 made it worse. IE has always been the "problem child" of browsers, failing to handle CSS, Javascript, some PHP and most design "tweaks" that good webmasters can use with other browsers, trouble free.
I have IE8 on XP, 9 on VIsta, 11 on 7, 10 on 8 and 11 on 8.1... but they're all for testing only. I'd have to be out of my mind to ever think of using IE as my primary browser. ActiveX controls have to be disabled formost stuff and that opens millions of security holes in IE.
You've got a good video card and a decent sound card. It's a shame to waste them on a pile of garbage like IE, just because it came with Windows.
