Hi All,

Figured out my flash-plugin problem:

If you are using flash-plugin higher than 11.1.102.63 and
you are getting reversed colors and artifacts in Firefox,
open a flash video right click in the video while it is playing,
go to "settings", "Display" (tab), unclick "Enable hardware
acceleration"

Which graphics card (and driver) do you have ?



EVGA 01G-P3-1370-TR GeForce GTX 460 Graphics Card - PCI
Express 2.0 x16 - 1 GB GDDR5 SDRAM

$ rpm -qa \*nvidia\*
nvidia-x11-drv-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
nvidia-x11-drv-32bit-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
kmod-nvidia-295.20-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64


Your drivers are quite outdated (the current release is 310.19). At least two security issues have been fixed in subsequent releases:

Fixed in 295.71

Fixed in 295.40
CVE-2012-0946 http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3109/~/security-vulnerability-cve-2012-0946-in-the-nvidia-unix-driver

Not to mention numerous bug fixes including a few affecting issues with flash.

Any reason yum isn't automatically updating these for you?
