    Flash video freezes in fullscreen, sound continues

    Have just upgraded to 10.10 using update manager, using firefox playing flash videos works fine untill i try to watch in fullscreen where the video freezes every few minutes although the sound keeps playing.

    toshiba satellite laptop using Intel, GMA 4500MHD

    Anything anyone can suggest to solve this would be appreciated, really don't won't to have to re-install 10.04 if i can avoid it

    many thanks

    thanks for the suggestion, although I don't believe that the screen saver uses flash. It might be two different problems, but they look awfully similar. To me they seem to be the same problem, just two different instances. I have a feeling it has something to do with the X-server.

    Do you have the latest driver for your video card?
