comment about page "FlashPlayer"
Hello all,
I submit a comment for the "flashplayer" wiki page available at
http://wiki.debian.org/FlashPlayer
The story begins when I recently upgraded from Lenny to Squeeze. I had
weird problems with the Flash Player plugin making iceweasel crashing
when trying full screen. Typical sites include youtube.com
Some reasearch showed previous cases with various hardwares; the problem
is documented in many forums, but without solution (beside "install a
previous version").
I finally found out the solution: tell FlashPlayer to disable "hardware
acceleration". This is done with a right-click on a movie window,
access the flashplayer menu, and unclick the default hardware acceleration.
Since the problem seems wide spread, I propose to document the solution
in the wiki page.
Best regards,
