I "fixed" this on my system by removing nspluginwrapper and installing the Flash 10 beta and Sun 6u12 JRE 64bit plugins instead. Since then, memory usage of Firefox has halved and I no longer get npviewer.bin using huge amounts of CPU to show annoying flash movies. -- Sam -- fedora-list mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
