[Bug 967091] Re: Wrong tint with Nvidia after upgrading to 11.2

 

Ok, just wondering if I understand this right (this is a real question
not sarcasm): the Ubuntu people can't update Precise so that hardware
acceleration for Flash is disabled out-of-the-box on the affected
systems, at least for the moment? Because Adobe would have to allow it
and currently they don't? Would they still have to allow it if the bug-
fixing file was moved to another package on which the flashplugin
packages could then depend?

Can we maybe help by bugging people at Adobe? Who would I need to
contact?

Of course I know now that all I have to do is disable hardware
acceleration. But I still think it would be great if other people (who
might not know what do do about such a bug at all) didn't have to search
high and low for an answer. So far Ubuntu has been "The Linux That Just
Kinda Works" - would be great if that reputation could be kept. Even a
message directing people to disable this hardware acceleration that
appears at the first browser start, or when first playing a likely-to-
be-affected video, would help.
