[Bug 665678] [NEW] Fullscreen videos bug in Youtube (and other sites)

[Leonardo Torok]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

When switching Youtube videos to fullscreen mode, the image in the
screen freezes. The video keeps playing in background, it's possible to
hear the sound, but the image keeps frozen. Switching back to windowed
mode the video continues normally, but no fullscreen is possible.

I've found a solution, that is:
$ sudo mkdir /etc/adobe
$ sudo echo \"OverrideGPUValidation = 1\" >> /etc/adobe/mms.cfg

That solves the issue completely. It's possible to solve it with an
update? A lot of users are with this problem
