looks like firefox is not finding flash in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins folder anymore ...
i'll try to find what's wrong and update modules/ISOs on the server. have to recompile kernel anyway to fix EFI issue.

Code: Select all

ln -s /usr/lib64/mozilla /usr/lib
should help.
You have mind and feelings. Be wise and clever.
