From 54718dd5c26db6fe712ce05cf7e14e14b7ee62fb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Glen Barber Date: Sun, 10 Jun 2012 15:26:31 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] As far as I can tell, linprocfs(5) is no longer required for proper functionality of the Flash plugin within Firefox. I do not know when this changed, nor what changed (i.e., if this is a Firefox change or not). Remove recommendation to ensure linprocfs is mounted, as a result.
