Mint 14 : Not happy with flash performance. All browsers.
Hi folks.
New to Linux. (and the forum)
Only ever used Microsoft on PCs (OK, CP/M 30 years ago :-O )
I was getting poor flash performance in Windows 7 on my Acer REVO 3610 (2 meg)
I have now installed Mint 14 (64 bit)
When watching the football stream in firefox (or chrome/chromium/opera) as the camera pans right or left the video frequently shears horizontally, it is watchable just not as good as my windows 7 amd quad core desktop.
Youtube is superb, as is full HD AVIs via XBMC. (liking XBMC!) Also have 5.1 audio pumping out without issue.
I eventually managed to upgrade flash to the latest version from the adobe website. (The version I had installed ended with 280, the one I have installed now ends with 285)
This made little difference...
Is there anything I can do to improve the performance or is this as good as it gets?
