HOWTO: Flash in breezy(with sound)

[comradevik]

so you upgraded to breezy but you get no sound in flash
here is what I did:


cd /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
sudo rm libflash*
sudo rm flash*

sudo apt-get install libflash0c2 libflash-dev libflash-mozplugin libflash-swfplayer flashplayer-mozilla flashplugin-nonfree

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libesd.so.0 /usr/lib/libesd.so.1


restart firefox

this should give you flash sound
to test .. go to www.badgerbadgerbadger.com

Hmm well I have flash sound working, but I see nothing. That is it's just black. And that happens on other pages as well.:(

[madjo]

No way for me...it doesn't work!

[wondering_jew]

a less messy way to fix this problem is to do

sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian-all

then everything that uses sound should play nicely together and you don't need to mess around with the plugins themselves.

Zardoz.. did you follow it step by step.. do you get any errors?
what are the files in your /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins folder

This works like charm, thanks!

These files are in the directory u told me to look in:

flashplayer.xpt libjavaplugin.so libtotem_mozilla.so
libflash-mozplugin.so libtotem_mozilla.a libtotem_mozilla.xpt
libflashplayer.so libtotem_mozilla.la nppdf.so

I have two soundcards, one integrated and the other one is Audigy on pci. I can hear all sounds but flash because the sound is redirected on the integrated card instead of Audigy. Infact if I plug the jack on the integrated card I can hear flash sound!

Howdy...

I had the same problem and all the other posts didn't help. This did. I followed the instructions. Restarted Firefox. Then I was prompted to reinstall the plug-in via Firefox's plug-in finder. Then....I got Badgers. :-)

Thanks!
