Something is going on with Firefox and Flashplayer modules when I use a changes= save.dat file. Firefox isn't connecting with the Flashplayer module whether it is from update-flashplayer or USM. I thought it could be a problem with my save.dat file so created a new one last week but the problem continues.
These are the various modules I've tried. The active ones are the .xzm files, the others are ones I have tried previously.
Code: Select all

With a prior 3.2 rc system there were problems when a user used the changes= cheatcode. I don't remember what the problems were specifically but I ended up using a changes-time script to determine what the impact was of each tweak I made then creating a module of the changed files. When I boot without a changes= cheatcode and use my changes modules Firefox and the Flashplayer work together. Even after updating the Flashplayer module yesterday.
The Firefox files in my changes module are:

cp -a --parents /home/guest/.mozilla/firefox/dxsqumip.default/xulstore.json /tmp/mod/
