Generically, I've been trying to disable HW Accel but it hasn't fixed |
32 |
the problem I'm seeing. I've tried |
33 |
|
34 |
EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=0 |
35 |
|
36 |
along with |
37 |
|
38 |
AVHardwareDisable = 1 |
39 |
|
40 |
and |
41 |
|
42 |
OverrideGPUValidation=0 |
43 |
or |
44 |
OverrideGPUValidation=1 |
45 |
|
46 |
which I don't think have anything to do with this, but I tried it |
47 |
anyway. No luck with those. Flash still crashes and I see this in |
48 |
dmesg: |

Most all of the references I find on the web have you turn off |
58 |
acceleration using a click box in Flash, but my Flash crashes so I |
59 |
have no GUI at all. |
60 |
|
61 |
With respect to 11.1, I suspect that's what I was running earlier but |
62 |
it's no longer in portage on any of my systems and I'm not finding it |
63 |
in any overlay. |
64 |
|
65 |
Thanks, I'll keep trying. |
