| ekapov | Hi. Does anyone know how to fix the fullscreen flash video bug in Gnome? | 05:34 |
|---|---|---|
| ekapov | When using fullscreen mode on flash videos from websites like dailymotion, tube, etc. in Firefox, the plugin container gets bugged and underlays. | 05:35 |
| ekapov | I know using Chrome works, but I want to stick with Firefox and keep my "Out-of-the-box Ubuntu" stock as much as possible... | 05:36 |
| darkxst | ekapov, does it crash? | 05:37 |
| darkxst | (gnome-shell that is?) | 05:37 |
| ekapov | it doesn't crash, but the fullscreen video/plugin container appears to underlay | 05:38 |
| ekapov | I've already tried reinstalling and updating, but still no go. The only fix is to use Google Chrome, but as I've mentioned, I want to keep Ubuntu Gnome out-of-the-box / stock as much as possible | 05:39 |
| ekapov | and I'm not much of a fan of Google Chrome | 05:39 |
| ekapov | (irrelevant info.) but I live by the Google headquarters, and eversince they got big, they've taken over neighboring towns (employees), driving up the rent and prices of everything around! | 05:40 |
| ekapov | and I don't like how they (google) have a way of dictating how consumer computing goes | 05:41 |
| ekapov | so, no Google Chrome solution for me... | 05:42 |
| ekapov | I've posted in ubuntuforums and launchpad, but no solution either.... | 05:44 |
| ekapov | the only other solution is to change the shell to unity. But I don't like unity because it resembles mac os | 05:45 |
| darkxst | ekapov, link to affected site/video? | 05:46 |
| ekapov | it's every site/video that uses flash in firefox | 05:46 |
| darkxst | ekapov, I don't use flash, you actually expect me to go find a flash site? | 05:48 |
| darkxst | so link! and not youtube, I have that setup to use html5 | 05:48 |
| ekapov | here's a video that someone posted, of the problem | 05:49 |
| ekapov | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JfLIW_pbN0&feature=youtu.be | 05:49 |
| darkxst | I don't want a video of the problem, a link to a problem video! | 05:49 |
| ekapov | do you have firefox? | 05:49 |
| darkxst | yes | 05:49 |
| ekapov | okay. like I mentioned, any site that uses flash. Here's a sample video http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xqjm03_ong-bak-muay-thai-warrior-part-1-of-12-full-movie_shortfilms | 05:50 |
| ekapov | it happens to anything in dailymotion | 05:51 |
| darkxst | that won't even play here, gets stuck on one frame | 05:53 |
| darkxst | (thats not even fullscreen!) | 05:53 |
| ekapov | like I mentioned, anything in Dailymotion.com | 05:54 |
| darkxst | I don't see how its related to fullscreen? | 05:55 |
| ekapov | it doesn't go into fullscreen | 05:55 |
| darkxst | it does here | 05:55 |
| darkxst | (although still have the topbar | 05:55 |
| ekapov | hit escape, then try it again | 05:56 |
| ekapov | are you willing to view an adult site? I have a sample site that have the same problem | 05:56 |
| darkxst | wtf! | 05:57 |
| ekapov | http://www.xnxx.com/video1418755/chinese_model | 05:57 |
| ekapov | here's another one (not adult site) http://www.ebaumsworld.com/ | 05:57 |
| darkxst | works fine, apart from the topbar still being there? | 05:58 |
| darkxst | and really? people actually watch that crap? | 05:59 |

| Guest12692 | Hi everyone. Out of curiosity - if Microsoft started to offer Windows for free, how many of you will switch to it? | 06:02 |
| Guest12692 | I saw this article that Microsoft might change their gameplan and offer a basic edition of Windows for free in the future; I guess to follow competitors (Linux, Google, etc.) | 06:03 |
| Guest12692 | currently, they are already offering the mobile edition for free. only a matter of time until the basic desktop edition becomes free as well. | 06:04 |
| Guest12692 | Hate to burst anyone's bubble, but my experience with Linux has been "not so good" lately. 10.04 and 12.04 worked flawlessly for me, hence I never had to use support. 14.04 has been nothing but bugs for me - especially Gnome. I finally sought for support through forums and launchpad (and chat here), and I'm finding proper support is really difficult to obtain, some aren't helpful, and some just don't have the ability to p | 06:16 |
| Guest12692 | Lots of people talk crap about Windows, but their product is close to perfect when released, and if not, patches are readily available without having to contact support. When you somehow need help – even basics, their support is outstanding. Sometimes free isn't always good, hence you get what you pay for. In the case of free – well, put the puzzle together... | 06:16 |
| Guest12692 | Sigh... It's been good with 10.04 and 12.04, but 14.04 opened up my eyes with the “ugly side” of things, and this is where I'll just sacrifice $69 and upgrade Windows. At least I won't have to go through this shit. | 06:16 |
| darkxst | maybe I should just ban these people that "rant and then quit!" | 06:21 |

| karolyi | hey guys, i just installed the latest ubuntu-gnome, updated it, and my prymary display setting does not work ever since | 11:06 |
| karolyi | i can set the primary display, but it's as if it doesn't get stored, the primary screen is always my builtin one when restarting | 11:07 |
| karolyi | however i see it in monitors.conf set as primary | 11:07 |
| karolyi | *primary it is, sorry for the typos | 11:19 |

| mgedmin | no more gnome-shell crashes for an entire day now that I've disabled all extensions | 12:26 |
| DASPRiD | apparently you had some unstable extension | 12:39 |
| mgedmin | so it would seem | 12:57 |
