Not chromium, google-chrome, there is a huge difference. Chromium is similar to iceweasal, it's mostly open sourced and strips out proprietary stuff like flash, which is why it didn't work for you. If you are really set on iceweasal and sacrificing your workstation to the flash gods, try this below. With that said, you're on your own and were warned to not use out of date flash: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.blocklist.enabled If you want to use actual google-chrome, go here: https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/ Click other platform if you want 64-bit binaries, they have rpm and deb files available. -- Jeremy MountainJohnson Jeremy.MountainJohnson at gmail.com On Thu, Feb 12, 2015 at 10:26 AM, o1bigtenor <o1bigtenor at gmail.com> wrote: > > > On Thu, Feb 12, 2015 at 7:42 AM, Jeremy MountainJohnson > <jeremy.mountainjohnson at gmail.com> wrote: >> >> There may be something in about:config to turn off the warning, but >> you're way better off upgrading the flash library.
