I've seen this sometimes.
What's the result of the following command?
lspcidrake|grep Card

Also what's driver is using your gfx card? Just attach (not paste) your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file if you don't know.

So it happens on both Intel & AMD (r600).
Sadly this is a proprietary closed source software

Thats exactly what I describe here:

https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9984

I experienced this _only_ in mga-built of firefox. Using Opera, Konqueror, or even binary firefox downloaded from mozilla.org, flash works fine.

Comment 7 Samuel Verschelde 2015-04-25 09:45:36 CEST

The fact that it happens only in firefox as packaged by Mageia looks like a good starting point for studying the issue.

Comment 8 Nic Baxter 2016-01-24 11:59:20 CET

Is there any point in debugging firefox and flash? We should be concentrating on html5.

Since flash is considered deprecated, I'm closing this issue.
