Browser Support • Re: Need help with Flash in Linux Mint 22.2

Alright, I found out how to get Adobe Flashplayer working without turning off hardware acceleration.

You need to add the following to /etc/adobe/mms.cfg

CODE:

OverrideGPUValidation=1

You also need to explicitly set your vdpau driver. Add this to /etc/environment when using an Intel or AMD GPU or an nvidia GPU with the free nouveau driver:

CODE:

VDPAU_DRIVER=va_gl

When using an nvidia card with the proprietary driver (also counting the proprietary driver with open kernel modules) add this:

CODE:

VDPAU_DRIVER=nvidia

Extra: if you want to disable the killswitch on the latest version of Adobe Flashplayer you can use this command (based on this information) : sed -i 's/\x00\x00\x40\x46\x3E\x6F\x77\x42/\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xF8\x7F/' libflashplayer.so
