Here's the issue and workaround: Which version of Chrome? What is your CPU? IIRC, Pepper Flash is disabled, by default, on older CPUs.
Very, very similar thread here: Google Chrome - couldn't load plugin - shockwave flash and a link to code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=173790. It's still flagged as "unconfirmed" despite several me-toos. It's now "untriaged" but this comment explains the problem: "Unfortunately, 11.5.31.138 was pushed out via the component updater, and using plugins from the component updater doesn't work on Linux (and breaks stuff, due to the way plugins are loaded). :( So deleting ~/.config/google-chrome/PepperFlash should fix things (unfortunately falling back to .137) ... and since we've stopped pushing .138, it won't reappear." So if your YouTube / flashcontent is broken rm -rf ~/.config/google-chrome/PepperFlash will restore your video access. -- Michael Rasmussen, Portland Oregon Be Appropriate && Follow Your Curiosity Other Adventures: http://www.jamhome.us/ or http://gplus.to/MichaelRpdx A special random fortune cookie fortune: It's the dingdong in shamalamadingdong. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
