Fullscreen videos bug in Youtube (and other sites)

[Leonardo Torok]

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 (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1593363&page=1).

That distro have reached EOL since a while; and such problem has been resolved long ago.
