1. @bigpup
Unable to attempt your suggestion by using the Settings Manager, because it won't display because Flash isn't functioning.
The warning says Flash is needed, which implies it isn't installed, and yet it is installed. 
2. @Brown Mouse
Decided to try FlashPlayer-11.2.202.228, but....
It isn't offered as a choice by getflash-0.9.9, and...
Cannot find a PET file for it.

Never experienced any in the past.Uninstall Flash and reboot before installing different version.

Do you think that uninstalling Firefox-12 obtained by auto-update, and installing Firefox-12 using the PET you linked would be worth trying?
(c) I already have installed "Google_Chrome-18-Lucid", and that plays Youtube videos OK.
(d) The reason I got into this at this time is because FTT at www.pcguide.com/vb/ cannot get sound [video is OK] on a George Carlin Youtube video in his desktop [Windows?] OS...
And I was trying to help with that.
Here's his thread.
Even Google Chrome won't play sound in this particular video.

Lupu-528.004 was a typo.
Sorry about that. |
Might be worth rolling back to FlashPlayer-11.2.202.228 which seems to work fine with auto-updated Firefox 12.

Youtube videos won't play...
Says a plugin is needed, but cannot find a suitable plugin.
The above Firefox and flashplayer fixed the problem in 3-Headed-Dog, but not here in Lupu-528.005
I'd like to use both 3-Headed-Dog AND Lupu-528.004.
Hence...
Any fix available? |
You mention Lupu-528.005 at the beginning of your post, and Lupu-528.004 at the end. Which Lupu are you using? I just got flashplayer11-11.2.202.235 on my 528.004 with Firefox 12 and YouTube works fine. I tested several videos. My FireFox was installed with the pet for FF 9.0.1-2 for Lucid and i upgraded to FF 12 by using the Help-About Firefox-Check for Updates method.

Adobe has abandoned support for all browsers except for chrome. |
Wonder what Google paid them, so people will need to use Chrome.
Anything to make it easier for Chrome to track and record what you do. Google info collection stream.
Google watching and recording all we do.
Does seem some of the complaining, about information collection, has changed their policy. So they claim.
Notice you have to make specific setting changes to stop it.

Boot from LupuPlus, accept all defaults at first run screen. Insert 8Gb usb stick (Lexar). Gparted usb stick with one Fat32 partition (no swap). Set boot and lba flags.

Did you run the Grub4Dos bootloader config?
Billtoo taught me about this simple program AND MANY THANKS FOR HIS HELP.

You will get better advice from people who actually know how to do this, but have you tried Bootflash?
Oh yeah, have you gotten any Puppy to work this way? Solacko?
