tried to play chess at pogo.com; was told to install flash; installed 'flashplugin-installer' from Muon Package Manager (Discover freezes every time I try to use it) after closing firefox web browser; opened firefox went back to pogo.com now it says "Context3D not available! Possible reasons: wrong wmode or missing device support." when I enter the chess room: the frames of the right username list and chat load, but nothing else loads with that error message displayed instead in the center of the flash frame (i suppose it's called). help.ubuntu.com indicates this is a bug, because what Ubuntu purports to do -- install flash from the Muon Package Manager -- does not successfully install flash. I will try to uninstall this package from the Muon Package Manager and instead follow the Adobe Flash download link from pogo.com and try a manual install. (My hypothesis is that the Muon package is outdated.)
