Package: flashplugin-nonfree
Version: 1:3.2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The flashplugin-nonfree package installs the newest version (currently 11.2)
of the the flashplayer, which does not work on AMD K7 cpu's or other cpu's that
do not support sse2. As a results, the player crashes with SIGILL.
In iceweasel and firefox this does just not work. Epiphany and midori crash,
only opera does show the cause of the crash.
The 11.1 version of the flash player does not use sse2 and works correctly.
Therefore I suggest that the flashplugin-nonfree package checks whether the
cpu supports sse2 (in /proc/cpuinfo), and the desides to install the latest
version or the older 11.1.
