Hi Ken
Flash requires X11 to render. It's not an issue with Qt, that's just how adobe-flashplugin works. Xvfb is a virtual frame buffer, which does not allow direct X painting.
Thus, there is no current solution to your problem that I can think of. I'd find an alternative way to render a page that does not include xvfb, if Flash is what you seek.

No'am

Hello,

We're trying to render a page with flash using ubuntu server 10.04 LTS.

We've got xvfb, libqt4-webkit, python-qt4, and adobe-flashplugin all installed.

We're using https://raw.github.com/AdamN/python-webkit2png/master/webkit2png.py to do the rendering.

It works perfectly on server for pages without Flash, and it works on Ubuntu Desktop 11.10 with flash, but we've been unable to have any success while rendering pages with Flash on ubuntu server 10.04.

Can anyone assist in why we can't get flash to load in this setup?

Thanks!
