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.
<snip> I filed a bug with the firefox team about exactly that. I'm running 64 bit CentOS 5.3, with updates, and it happens with both firefox 3.5.3 and 3.0.14.
Fortunately, I install in such a way as to not wipe out the existing, running version... so I'm running 3.0.12 until I see a fix.
