solved
I have tried this and I also have LDM_Directx running. It was
working fine with K12ltsp6 and edubuntu feisty. Now with Hardy it is jerky
again. I think the graphic driver is wrong because everything is slow not just
flash. How can I troubleshoot and fix this?

Finally
figured out (and sorry if I've discovered the obvious) how to
resolve
the issue of the new version of Flash working so poorly on my
thin
clients.
This latest version includes hardware acceleration which
is a great idea
for stand alone desktops with average to modern
graphics cards. It's a
rotten idea on a low powered thin
client.
Right click a Flash animation and you'll get a menu of
options. Choose
"Settings" near the bottom.
In settings, the
first pane (the leftmost) has the option for hardware
acceleration. By
default, it is checked. Uncheck it and restart your
browser.
If
you've tried this version before and reverted to 9.0.48, you'll see
the
tab for the display pane but won't be able to access the dialogue.
And
even reverting, you may experience poor performance (it was driving
me
nuts).
Note: some Flash files disable the ability to change
settings. If you
can't access a menu, go to a different web site, e.g.
adobe.com
Hope this helps
someone.
Regards,
William

Will this work for other flash applications? We have
an app that calls the flash player to display the program thought http and
even though it works great on the server, it's performance is terrible on the
thin clients. If you can change the settings in firefox will they work
universally for that user is the question I guess. And is there a way to make
that the default for all users?
