[manjaro-general] flash issues

[bill .]

Upgraded it myself with the .tar.gz file from Mozilla and some command line work. All is well, just needed the most recent version. Still dunno why the latest Manjaro update didn't give it me... ah well.
peace

Hi,

this is not a bug, it is a feature. Firefox disables by default flash.
You can read about it here:

http://www.ghacks.net/2015/07/14/mozilla-blocks-all-versions-of-adobe-flash-in-firefox/

If you want to disable this feature go to the Add-ons Manager ->
Plugins and change Shockwave Flash from >Ask to Active< to another
state. But be aware that this is not safe. Flash is vulnerable as hell.

With kind regards

klesk
