current dmesg

This is probably a VDPAU problem since I can't reproduce it like 'DRI_PRIME=1 VDPAU_DRIVER="" chromium-browser'. Granted it's pointless for me to do this, but I was trying to reproduce another crash that's similar to another NVA3 report on here (bug 69465). I wanted to listen to some music until it crashed and noticed the Flash bug. ;)

Anyway,
1. DRI_PRIME=1 chromium-browser (which I guess defaults to VDPAU_DRIVER=nouveau)
2. go to www.youtube.com and play a video
3. open new tabs

The Flash video is overlaying all the other tabs. Alas, there's nothing at all in dmesg. I'm pretty sure I have the latest firmware. Note: this is Adobe Flash, not Pepper Flash.

For what it's worth, DRI_PRIME=1 VDPAU_DRIVER=nouveau mplayer -vo vdpau file.avi works fine.

I'm going to set the priority to low since if you uncheck 'Enable hardware acceleration' in the player settings and reload the tab, the problem goes away.

This was fixed years ago.
