    Flash 10.2 Causes problems

    So I've been having this problem with flash 10.2 on ubuntu, basically if I have a youtube video open it is still shown even when It's been closed or if I scroll off the page.

    However weirdly it only shows on the black parts of my screen, for example a black picture will show a perfect picture of the youtube player with the last video I watched, even if I close the video (and firefox)

    Annoyingly taking screenshots does not show the problem unfortunately.

    I know it's hard to imagine but I was hoping someone might know a way I can fix this problem. (I understand it may be a flash bug, so I will seek help from them as well).

    Thanks for any replies.

    Hello, same problem and a way to get flash working is to install chrome : flash version is 10.2.154 while it's 10.2.152 on ubuntu, and it works. Waiting for an update in ubuntu version.

    I copied flashplugin from chrome to firefox and chromium plugins directory and it worked :

    Dowwload chrome and install it from : http://www.google.com/chrome/eula.html?hl=fr

    then :

    Code:
    sudo cp /opt/google/chrome/libgcflashplayer.so /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins
    Code:
    sudo chmod ugo+x /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins/libgcflashplayer.so
    and for firefox :
    Code:
    sudo cp /opt/google/chrome/libgcflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins
    Code:
    sudo chmod ugo+x /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/libgcflashplayer.so
    Then I uninstalled chrome.
