[Bug 968759] Re: adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.228-0lucid1freezes firefox display - crashes some webkit programs (depends on cpu)
Hopefully, Marius. This despotic attitude of Adobe people is simply disgusting, as it's showing here. BTW, why "Fix Released" in Debian? Trying to crack a good joke?? NO FIX WAS EVER RELEASED. Period. Bart was right that the Debian people cannot do anything about it, as "upstream ain't giving a damn" as pointed out so verbosely (and correctly) above by Rafal. As Flash is closed source, it would have to be done by Adobe themselves...OR...by some genius who knows about reverse engineering (disassemble everything and kickout all SSE2 shit). But knowing how big these files are, this may become a 1-year job... *** WARNING *** UNOFFICIAL *** Back in 2012, I decided to put up a Debian package back in 2013, and I stll get an insanely lot of download requests each week for it (even though I have never pestered any distro teams directly that they should include it) http://www65.zippyshare.com/v/78802631/file.html Install it, and it will work OOTB on any non-SSE2 machine. Created from an older maverick package, I simply replaced the Flash bloatware by yet another Chrome build (11.2.202.236) and fired this up to ZippyShare. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/968759 Title: adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.228-0lucid1freezes firefox display - crashes some webkit programs (depends on cpu) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/adobe-flashplugin/+bug/968759/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Unfortunately Adobe will change the version of their extended support release from 10.3 - 11.7 (on Windows and Mac). From http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player- versions.html : Beginning July 9th, 2013, we will be updating the version of our extended support release from Flash Player 10.3 to Flash Player 11.7 for Mac and Windows. To continue to stay current with all available security updates, install the 11.7 extended support release. Or, update to the most recent available release (11.8, etc.) This probably means, that the linux 10.3 branch isn't maintained any longer either. In that case, the proposed solution from my previous post is not valid anymore. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/968759 Title: adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.228-0lucid1freezes firefox display - crashes some webkit programs (depends on cpu) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/adobe-flashplugin/+bug/968759/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Please provide an installer (or adapt the existing) for flashplayer 10.3 for people with cpus without sse2. According to https://www.adobe.com/support/programs/policies/supported.html 10.3 is still supported by adobe (which means it gets security fixes), although I couldn't find anything about how long it will be supported. Background: There is an one year old upstream bug report: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bugid=3161034, which probably means, that this issue will never be fixed by adobe. So instead of letting people down by either having no working flash at all (if they don't have the necessary knowledge to fix this) or by being forced to use fishy workarounds (like old flash versions with known security issues), this would provide an easy to use and fairly secure fix for this problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/968759 Title: adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.228-0lucid1freezes firefox display - crashes some webkit programs (depends on cpu) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/adobe-flashplugin/+bug/968759/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Using AMD semprons 1800+. I am experiencining the problem after running ubuntu update manager, which upgrades firefox 11 to firefox 12 and upgrades Flash player to 11.2.202.235. Also as a test, I downloaded the non-repository firefox from mozilla website, and then downloaded the same version of Flash from Adobe website (the tar.gz for other linux. I ran apt-get purge for the existing firefox and adobe-flashplugin, then extracted the firefox and flash to my home folder, and the same problem occured. So this shows that it isn't related to the firefox or flash that ubuntu provides, it happens with the versions downloaded direct from the vendor sites. I have successfully run this same version of flash with the firefox 12 from mozilla's site on another machine, but it was a different hardware model and a different OS too, so now I can't say whether it was the OS (mint 11) or the CPU type that allowed it to function correctly... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/968759 Title: adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.228-0lucid1freezes firefox display - crashes some webkit programs (depends on cpu) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/adobe-flashplugin/+bug/968759/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I voted on https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bugid=3161034, but I currently have 11.2.202.235 installed. Do I need to vote on another Adobe bug report to have more impact?

After further investigation I don't recommend using kvm to reproduce the problem--I'm not convinced it faithfully reproduces the cpu capabilities WRT SSE and SSE2cpu capabilities (though it does crash there).
