I've made a lot of modifications, so I'm not sure exactly which action leads to the malfunction of adobe-flash. I use the latest stable version of adobe-flash(10.2.153.1), nvidia(260.19.36). What you guys know what factors are affecting the performance of adobe-flash? Here's the recent main modifications to my system: 1. (/etc/make.conf) change CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS from "-O2 -march=i686 -pipe" to "-O2 -march=native -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" 2. change the *Preemption Model" in the kernel config from "Voluntary Kernel Preemption" to "Preemptible Kernel" 3. excluded SMT scheduler support in the kernel config(my CPU doesn't support hyper-threading) 4. I tried the latest 2.6.38 gentoo-sources, and roll back to 2.6.36-r8 Thanks in advance :) -- Best Regards, Einux [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/html, Size: 1659 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
