I just wanted to start the evening watching a tv show and to my surprise the pepperflashplugin was somehow gone (it just runs way better then the old gray-ish std-flashplugin). Not listed under plugins too. Its installed and I even re-installed it just to make sure. Nope. And flags from \/etc\/chromium\/default seem to be ignored too. Trying another user…<\/p>\n

Failed to create secure directory (\/run\/user\/1001\/pulse): Permission denied<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

[29286:29318:0204\/231451:ERROR:cache_creator.cc(115)] Unable to create cache<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
