Google Chrome and flash problem

[Spiros_G]

Ok, the problem below is -surely- not a major! But I''ll be glad if someone has any idea of why this happen. Has anybody test google-chome on a clean install of Salix 14.0 64bit, because I come from upgrade?

I have build (repackage) and install some packages from this ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/slackware/s ... le-chrome/ using both stable and beta version of google-chrome.
The only problem I have is when I try to play a flash video, I only hear the sound of it. In the place of the video, there is a blank screen. And if I choose (blindly) to watch in fullscreen, it is as expected!
All these are when I' m using the chrome's bundle pepper flashplugin ( /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so ). With the "old and traditional" plugin, I have no problem!

It is strange that I haven't these problems on slackware 14.0 64bit (upgrade from 13.37), having install the same packages! Some terminal messages from Salix:

On Slack I haven't the nvfx_screen_get_param warnings.. if this is helpful! I have no use any proprietary drivers for my nvidia graphics card.
I have also try to replace some salix packages with slack's with no result on ths issue.

*Any* ideas about that...

Is it possible that you're using a different graphics driver in slackware (nouveau/nv)?

Thanks for responding!

I also made a new initrd for Salix, with:

Code: Select all

/usr/share/mkinitrd/mkinitrd_command_generator.sh -k 3.2.29 | bash

and it has the same size with slack's initrd.

Is this helpfull (slackware and salix)?:

Furthermore, this issue is independent from the multilib environment (tested)..

Maybe some obsolete libraries linked from some 13.37's installing scripts... I don't know if slapt-get (which I use for the dist upgrade) removes these files too!

If you created them manually, they're not removed. If they were created by a package, they are.
