Sadly, I found that flashplugin just plain crash in latest chrome (Chromium 20.0.1132.57) and firefox (Firefox 14.0.1), I tried to downgrade flashplugin (until 10.x)[1] but the problem persists. I also tried to disable hardware acceleration but this doesn't solve it either :(.
Is somebody running into this issue too? I've searched the bbs and I don't found anything according to Firefox 14.0 and this flashplugin version.
I'm running Arch x86_64.

You need to provide more info. What happens when you run chromium or firefox from the terminal? .xsession-errors? video card? Also with chromium you can try pepper flash: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=60443.

"Adobe Plugin has Crashed"
That's the error I get in both browsers. In youtube appears the "XP" face instead of the video the terminal output shows only:
Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
My video is:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07).
In chrome Pepper flash works okay (at least in youtube).

Looks like. The only crashes I'm aware of are when using hardware decoding with VDPAU. But you don't have VDPAU-capable graphics, so that's not it.

I'm getting this exact same problem. I'm running x86_64 and flash crashes in every browser. It also gives me the same error message.
Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I don't know why it's trying to use vdpau because my graphics card is:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 12) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

Like I said, Intel is not VDPAU-capable (it uses vaapi instead, but that's not supported by flash). So you can ignore that message.

Alright I got flash to work in Firefox by installing
lib32-flashplugin10
from the AUR.
You might have to go to about:config in Firefox and set
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled
to true.

Thanks, that works, but it means we are running an old flash version. I will continue to investigate the issue.
@Gusar
Thanks, I've read that, still that's the only error I get in the console. Any tip/advice on how I can find the problem?

Flash 10.3 is still being maintained, so if it works, use it. Except the lib32-flashplugin10 package from AUR installs an old version which has known security holes. Only use the versions listed here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplay … tion3.html
@pablox: You're basically screwed . Flash is a closed-source piece of excrement. Adobe couldn't get it running properly, so they gave up. They literally gave up - note how there's no 11.3 for Linux at that link.

Hahahaha, I know. I was using 11.2.x (i believe) until a couple of days ago in Chromium and Firefox. Then suddenly they stopped working. As I said, I tried a lot of different versions but all of them were crashing.
The package in the AUR reports:
Version : 10.3.183.15-1
So I guess it's okay.

Err... read again what I wrote. That version is specifically *not* ok.

Sorry, I looked the first three parts of the version number...
AUR: 10.3.183.15
From the webpage you told me: 10.3.183.20
... the fourth one differs in one number. I'm gonna fix the pkgbuild and install that one, thanks again.

Well, I updated the pkgbuild a bit, and also changed to the last version (10.3.183.20) supported.
https://gist.github.com/3176811
(first one is the patch to the pkgbuild and the second one is the pkgbuild itself).
I hope it helps if someone else runs into the same issue.
Again, thanks Gusar

Thought I would chime in, I used your pkgbuild pablox, thanks. On basically every page though I kept getting the "Flash out of date, please update" messages. I uninstalled flashplugin, and the lib32-flashplugin, made sure all flash was removed, then installed the main flashplugin package, and it seems to be working again. Maybe it just needed to be reinstalled?
Offline
No it doesn't work. I found that it specially fails (every time) with youtube, other apps works randomly. I guess I'll have to stay with 10.x or wait until it's somehow fixed in a next update.

I found what the problem is .
The issue has to do with the infinality font rendering. I was using OSX rendering (/etc/profile.d/infinality-settings.sh)... going back to DEFAULT fix it. Of course it's a bug and I'm gonna report it on infinitaly site.
I'll mark this as solved.

I love archlinux: the last STABLE kernel release + the last STABLE DE release + the last STABLE apps releases. The upstream developers decide what is STABLE.
