this has nothing to do with firebug. please read more carefully. the issue is that enabling ubuntu firefox modifications breaks some flash based applications. to reproduce the problem follow these steps (which now includes steps to discount your corrupt profile theory):
1) move existing profile from /home/myuser/,mozilla to .mozilla_old. 2) go to ubuntu software center and uninstall ubuntu firefox modifications. 3) shutdown all firefox processes (verify that top -bn1 | grep firefox returns nothing) 4) restart firefox 5) go to www.safaribooksonline.com and login to an account. add a book to your bookshelf and try to read it. 6) the book loads fine with no problems with flash 7) shutdown firefox 8) reinstall ubuntu firefox mods 9) start firefox and go back to book on safari. 10) flash loaded pages never load. i have had similar issues with hearts of space.com and both were solved by turning off ubuntu firefox mods. -- ubuntu modifications 0.8 (and earlier) breaks some flash based apps like o'reilly safari https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/490615 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
