Ok, tried that, purge and reinstall flash.
Deleted .local folder
rebooted
Showing The Blue Hand.
Someone like to share the patch procedure. I cant be the only affected person.
wonder if it can be related to the theme used or the session used (unity, gnome, GS, ...)

reading this sounds like you would
1. make a backup of the libvdpau_trace.so file
2. run patch command against libvdpau_trace.so file
3. then have to modify the start parameter of the browser.
add an "export VDPAU_TRACE=1" line to /usr/lib/firefox-n.n/firefox.sh
4. likely restart system.
What about for the Chrome browser?

logged out and back in with LXDE and they are still blue smurfs.wonder if it can be related to the theme used or the session used (unity, gnome, GS, ...)
i am using arch linux and using flash 11 and nvidia 290.33 driver and had the blue smurf face affect to fix it edit the /etc/adobe/mms.cfg file by removing the # at the front of the hardware acceleration line. save the file and then restart firefox and the smurfs are gone.
i have attached my mms.cfg file so you can see how it looks.
I dont have an mms.cfg file and I dont have an /etc/adobe folder.
odd? different system?

Hi
I've rolled Flash back to v.11.1.102.63 and the Smurf Manhattan Avatar look has gone.
Thanks to papibe and to posters on the other threads.
Roll on the death of flash!
Cheers
