I've never experienced anything remotely similar to an empty light-blue screen in firefox. It reminds me of a bad setup of direct rendering in graphics drivers, though. Like mplayer displaying a blue screen instead of a movie or such. But nothing like that in a *browser*, ever. > I have been testing with CNN news, which is the application I really > want to use flash with. There, I get the above behaviour with all video > clips.

I don't watch CNN news, but I fired it up now just to check my flash. Everything seems to work, all clips and news, CNN Live streaming, etc... Live streaming is a bit jerky, but I guess that's just because of the bandwidth and such. Every clip on youtube that I tried works. This bluescreen stuff is suspicious. What graphics card do you use? Drivers? Do you have working 2D, 3D, xv in mplayer and such? Any issues with those? > Any further thoughts on what I may have missed? Try to use a different browser to test&compare? Konqueror, opera, or such? Point them to the same flash plugin .so and try them out instead? Or "yum remove firefox" followed by "yum install firefox" followed by reinstalling the .so ? Or create a new dummy user, log in and try it from there? Btw, I'm on F12, 64bit. Maybe upgrade? Though firefox is the same version, I guess it shouldn't matter...
