Hi,

I'm testing a system that has had problems with the i915 graphics 
driver in the past. At the moment it is running Lubuntu 16.04 LTS 
GNU/Linux and everything is fine.


However, I haven't activated flash playback in Firefox, yet. In the 
run up to Firefox 47 (I think), I was led to believe that Flash files 
would be natively handled using HTML5.


That doesn't seem to have happened. I've looked in Firefox's Tools -> 
Add-ons and searching for "Shockwave Flash" yields 98 results.Not too 
sure which one to try.


For security reasons, I disabled Flash playback on computers.

Can anyone advise me what to do next?

TIA,


Ian

Ian:

There is a package in the Ubuntu repository called 
flashplugin-instcaller, which (after you install it) will install the 
flash-plugin version for Linux on your machine, which then works in 
FireFox.


I have been using that successfully on all of my machines, and to my 
knowledge, with no problems.
