Version 11.1.102.55 has just been published but it doesn't solve the
problem, obviously. The beta 11.2 doesn't either (it even can't play
video in my case).
But finally, I've been able to recover these versions (luckily I still
kept many of them in my computer):

I'm also using a notebook equipped with the ION chipset and am affected
by this absurd decision from Adobe. Until now I had been using a
development version of Flash 10. But I decided to move to Flash 11,
believing that it would include an improved and official hardware video
acceleration. But, fte

Oh the Beeb's front, they're investigating the issues - my case number
is BBC iPlayer - Case number CAS-1085162-WX025B
BBC's own FAQ page -
http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/help/announcements/flash_upgrade -
suggests it may be possible to drop down to a minimum version of 10.1...

Just found this Reddit thread -

Specifically this comment "So, not 11 then which had the most recent
and finally legitimately good updates to hardware acceleration and 64bit
support?
Huh? Not in Linux, according to a
Thinking back to the experience on iPlayer when the change was made, the
situation was exacerbated by the Flash 10 package being updated to Flash
11 *in place*, as opposed to a new Flash 11 package being built and
adobe-flashplugin just repointed to it. Doing it this way rather than

Oh - also, the removal of Stage Video for NVIDIA was a deliberate decision by
Adobe - which was done between Beta and Gold release...
Not offering a backout without stepping into the murky world of tarballs and
monitoring for patches does seem a little remiss IMHO. And scary for less
technical
Probably not, but while unsupported, an option to fix at Flash 10.2 or
10.3 until Adobe reintroduce Stage Video (whatever they call it) would
enable low power machines to actually *use* iPlayer, Youtube, Demand5,
4OD and other streaming video-on-Flash smoothly. this is the crux of
the issue. A st
Using Flash 10 instead of Flash 11 will break the (probably now
hundreds, if not thousands) of websites that only work with Flash 11,
either because they use features only present in major version 11, or
because they trigger bugs that were fixed in major version 11 (or in
some incremental release a
Not confident. And would prefer to rely on official packages -
especially when it came to eventually accepting 12.04.1 next year...
Also, am thinking of other users as well. And when or if Adobe manage
to get Stage Video/3D/whatever sorted - would prefer to just accept the
update through Update
Since the bug is either in Adobe Flash or in the BBC's flash content,
perhaps Adobe and the BBC could work together to ameliorate the
problem...
How does this break *any* machines? Can't you just remove the Flash
player as packaged for Ubuntu, and install it from
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/c
But it means i have to buy a new computer to watch iplayer content.
Please could canonical and the bbc discuss.. This breaks an entire
class of machines.

Breaking a single site that is incompatible with the present version
does not make the unavailability of the previous version a non-wishlist
bug. The bug is either in the BBC site's flash content or in Flash 11.
This is a genuine wishlist item and I hope it is "fixed" but it is
certainly nothing mo
This is not a wishlist item. the adobe flash 10 p,kg being updated to
v11 instead of a new pkg being rolled has meant thart due to the changes
in Flash, netbooks with N270 cpu and nvidia ion gpus cannot eun bbc

Please redefine as active bug. This has broken bbc iplayer
