[solved] flash in firefox not working after pacman update
Hi everyone,
I updated my system today using pacman -Syu and now flash isn't working in firefox. In fact, opening a youtube video causes firefox to crash. Before the update it worked fine. I have flashplugin-11.2.202.406-1 installed. I don't know where to start to fix this.
I've already checked the about:plugins in firefox and it says that I have the flash plugin installed and its on always activate setting.
Does anyone know where I can start to look for errors?

Tell us more about your system: graphics hardware and configuration, 32 or 64 bit, what packages have been updated and whether downgrading fixes you problem, is there anything interesting in the logs, systemd's journal or core dumps?

Thank you both for your time and insight. I was able to fix the problem by turning off the plugins and turning them back on followed by a reset of firefox.
