flashblock plugin doesn't work in firefox

[Stepan Roucka]

I have flashblock plugin installed and it appears in firefox add-on manager, but the flash
is displayed anyway independently on the plugin settings. This problem appeared in
Interpid ~week ago after some updates, before it worked fine.

I am running Ubuntu Interpid amd64 on core 2 duo, flash is displayed through
nspluginwrapper I think.

I also run into the same problem after upgrading to intrepid.

I'm also confirming this issue in Intrepid.

I also noticed the official flashblock from http://flashblock.mozdev.org/ has the same behaviour.

It seems like flashblock does work if ubufox (Ubuntu Firefox Modifications) is disabled.

[Stepan Roucka (rouckas)]

I confim, that disabling ubufox solves this problem.

Hi,

I just upgraded intrepid and everything works as it used to be,
I suspect the issue was in ubufox, if yes please close this bug...

If someone is bored, can you take care of hardy version as well :

Does anyone still see this issue? im under the impression that it is no longer broken even with ubufox enabled

[Niels Egberts (nielsegberts)]

Yep, with the latest firefox update this bug has been fixed.
