Adobe Flash Plugin works, then quits
I have been using Ubuntu for about three years and I have a new problem. I use Adobe Flash 11.1r102 with Firefox 9.0.1 on 11.10 64-bit.
Flash had quit working as of 1/9/12, because I needed it to watch the BCS Championship that evening. I reinstalled it and it worked just fine.
But, sometime after that, it stopped working, again. Firefox still recognizes it as an installed plugin, but anytime I need to use it, an image is displayed that shows it to be non-operational. Sometimes the image looks like a black-and-white clapboard that they use for movie scenes, sometimes it is a color image with a red dash or a red X.
Here is the currently installed plugin: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18782360 2012-01-10 08:49 /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
Why does it stop working when it is clearly installed? What can I do to keep it working?
