I installed a flashplayer named "Shockwave flash 9.0 r100" using the tab that pops down (don't know what it's called) whenever there's an application required in firefox. My current version of ff is 3.0.6.
Now, I'm experiencing a problem with the app. Whenever there's a flash-driven element on a page, it shows up dark grey, with this giant, ugly play button-icon. When it's a video of any kind, say Youtube, it plays, but lags and freezes firefox after a while, still playing the sound. Some video elements simply turn black after pressing the giant play button. (Commercial elements seem to have no problem with the app..)
So, I've tried to read threads about deleting the plugin, but I can't find one that actually works. I can't get rid of it. And somehow it blocks other flash players, like Adobe(I've installed Adobe fp 10 manually as from the " [SOLVED] You Tube / Installed plugins "). At least I think it does. When I turn it of, I still get the message that I need to "install the latest Adobe flashplayer plugin".
On my laptop with the same version of both ff and ubuntu, I installed Adobe's flash player first. That works perfectly fine.
Any solutions on making my web browser able to play flash?
