SM 2.46 and Flash problem [Linux]

Post by tombenko »

I run an ArchLinux system, using SeaMonkey for browsing. On the weekend I updated the system, including SeaMonkey, and since then the Flash-based sites don't works. All items appearing except for the flash content. Even the flashplayer don't runs. Here are the log: using NPAPI flashplayer and using pepperflash and freshplayer. All three computers reports the same error, but when I tried the pages with Firefox, they worked ok.

Example pages where I failed:
Farmerama
Honfoglaló
Shockwave

And if you try Adobe's NPAPI version of Flash for Linux, what happens?

What does about:plugins show?
What does Addons Manager -> Plugins show?
Fire 750, bring back 250.

No need to use workarounds like the Freashplayer wrapper Plugin and Pepper Flash to have the current branch of Flash Player in SeaMonkey and Firefox on Linux.

Adobe now supports Linux again with current branch as of the current NPAPI Firefox Player 24.0.0.186 for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux released on December 13.

https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/


Also this was coming as Adobe had beta builds for Linux since early Sept from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html as the current version there is 24.0.0.189 since Dec 14.

Yes, similar, but not the same. The app don't run, not just the flash content invisible. And happens the same with a new user too.

I know, originally I used the NPAPI version, that is the first log I linked. The result is the same.

Now I returned to the NPAPI Flash Player, and did some tests. The result is these three lines seem to have some relevancy:
