[arch-general] flash full screen under FF5 and arch64

[Benjamin Sambale]

Problem solved, sorry for the noise.

In case one is interested in the solution: The flash setting menu only 
works in full screen mode! Then it is possible to untick the box 
"hardware acceleration". After that everything works.
