<div>Hi,<br>
<br>
</div>
I'm testing a system that has had problems with the i915
graphics driver in the past. At the moment it is running
Lubuntu 16.04 LTS GNU/Linux and everything is fine.<br>
</div>
<br>
</div>
However, I haven't activated flash playback in Firefox, yet. In
the run up to Firefox 47 (I think), I was led to believe that
Flash files would be natively handled using HTML5. <br

<div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That doesn't seem to have happened. I've looked in
Firefox's Tools -> Add-ons and searching for
"Shockwave Flash" yields 98 results.Not too sure which
one to try.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>For security reasons, I disabled Flash playback on
computers.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Can anyone advise me what to do next?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>TIA,<br>

There is a package in the Ubuntu repository called
flashplugin-instcaller, which (after you install it) will install
the flash-plugin version for Linux on your machine, which then works
in FireFox. <br>
<br>
I have been using that successfully on all of my machines, and to my
knowledge, with no problems. <br>
