ski, We can forget about nspluginwrapper (and libflashsupport) to reduce complexity, that's all. With versions of Flash prior to v10 beta, the basic equation was:
a) Flash = audio is not directed to PulseAudio, therefore sounds cannot mix. However, Flash does not crash. b) Flash + configuration proposal in bug #198453 = Flash does not successfully pass audio to PulseAudio c) Flash + libflashsupport = audio is directed to PulseAudio, Flash crashes sporadically causing Firefox to crash. d) Flash + libflashsupport + nspluginwrapper = audio directed to PulseAudio, Flash crashes sporadically but Firefox does *not* crash. You can see that our options were limited, but (d) was clearly the best option. As for performance benefits, you're misquoting me. Somebody else mentioned that nspluginwrapper helps on multi-core systems; I only have single-core systems so I cannot comment. Flash v10 now seems to cooperate with the "pcm_pulse" ALSA plugin natively (as I mentioned in my last post), so we have a new & better option (i.e. just to fix bug #198453). For i386 users, I posted an updated flashplugin-nonfree package here if you want to do some testing: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 See Part B, but Part A is a prerequisite (i.e. to apply the fixes of bug #198453). -- firefox crashes on flash contents when using libflashsupport https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192888 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
