Didn't they remove support for that or disable it by default at some point? yes, Mozilla says after v69 its deactivated by default. They instruct you to go to plugins and activate it. But firefox shows the plugin is not even installed - however gentoo shows that it is installed Confirmed. Firefox-bin installed. Adobe-flash also. Firefox is not able to see flash. That's really great when you need to use flash urgently. After 1 hour of research (urgently we said), the only workaround I found was to install www-client/google-chrome and configure it to allow execution of the flash plugin on the fly on a specific website. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 705940 *** |
