Hello,
The bottom line is that flash for Linux is no longer supported beyond what you already have installed. Ahem, who do you think provided the updates to .438 and now .440 then? Adobe _still_ obviously does fix security problems so it seems. But

It's a pain in the asphalt but you will just have to muddle through with what's available. I watched a flash video just a few minutes ago and I had to tell Firefox to use what it already had. It just doesn't seem to remember from start to the next start that you want it to use what flash plugin it has installed. You seem rather confused here. Do you have multiple flash-plugins installed? If so: clean up. Remove them all! I recommend you remove alternative plugins (gnash etc.) too. Install the latest 11.2.202.440. All fixed. And install the prefbar addon so you can switch on flash only when wanted. And Noscript.

According to the Adobe website: "*NOTE*: Adobe Flash Player 11.2 will be the last version to target Linux as a supported platform. Adobe will continue to provide security backports to Flash Player 11.2 for Linux." I do have the latest and greatest installed. Firefox still wants a newer version that will never come. The Windows version of Flash Player is now 16.0.0.296. This is what Firefox is programmed to want. -- “Never be afraid to laugh at yourself, after all, you could be missing out on the joke of the century.” - Joan Rivers _ _... ..._ _ _._ ._ ..... ._.. ... .._ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
