Bug Description
Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree
ii firefox 3.0~rc1+
ii flashplugin-nonfree 9.0.124.0ubuntu2
some flash applets do not show some or all of the text that can be seen using flash on other operating systems. I figured out that if I install the msttcorefonts package, then the text shows up (after restarting firefox).
strace'ing firefox shows:
...
open("/
open("/
...
so it looks like flash plugin needs an Arial font or alias setup, which doesn't seem to be the case with a default ubuntu install.
example flash applet exhibiting this behaviour: http://
