I'm glad to hear it works again (or at > least somewhere). BTW, I just remembered something - there is a Fedora-specific (ish) wrinkle here, which is that if you have SELinux enabled, it will interfere with Flash as installed from the upstream tarball (not sure about the RPM repo) until you relabel the file as recommended by the SELinux denial alert message. For me this manifested as any page with Flash on it taking an age to display (and rendering Firefox un-responsive until it did), and the Flash content not working. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
