Hi,
 
I am running 32-bit Firefox-3.5.3 on Centos-5.3 (64-bit kernel) on a Dell Precision M65 laptop. This is likely a Adobe problem, but maybe someone else has seen this before. Please CC me, as I only receive the digest version of the list.

 
When using the 10.0.32.18-release version of the flash-plugin, trying
to access *any* page containing flash (e.g. www.adobe.com) causes the
browser to die. This also happens with version 10.0.22.87. Version
9.0.115.0 works fine. To avoid problems with add-ons, Firefox is
started with "-safe-mode". As far as I know, the problem also happens
with Firefox-3.0.x.
 
# uname -a
Linux l6g0223j 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5 #1 SMP Mon Aug 24 08:21:56 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
# rpm -q flash-plugin
flash-plugin-10.0.32.18-release
 
 
Any idea? Anything I can help debugging the problem?
 
Cheers
Martin
