Hi, I've seen similar problems with some X.org drivers (e.g. r128) on Ubuntu LTSP thin clients (fat clients do not have this problem) and setting the following environmental variable fixed the problem: LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 To try it you can run firefox from command line: $ LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 firefox Placing it in /etc/environment was enough on Ubuntu to fix the problem for all the users. The behaviour was same on both 32-bit and 64-bit flash versions, with or without nspluginwrapper.
