Hello,
have a lock in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf in section "Screen" there is a
entry named "DefaultDepth". The value must be 24 for flash. Don't ask
me why. After you change this entry you must restart the xserver, you
can do this as follows:
1. log out
2. press CTRL+BACKSPACE
For my Toshiba Tecra 8100, this was the solution.
Good luck,
Mr Canis
