I found the solution for working with color depth under 24
------------------------------------------------------------
Theres a workaround mentioned, setting:
export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
before starting Firefox makes Flash work for me :-)
Maybe this variable can be set as a default in the Ubuntu firefox
startscript (/usr/lib/firefox) so other users dont have to cope with
this...
-----------------------------------------------------------
I have to work with color depth=16 or 15 because my clients are old/my
terminal server is not the best!
So I set this variable in the firefox startscript.

Reiner
