So I'm not the only one!? I'm using Firefox on 4.10 and 5.2 with KDE
and found that it's quite OK on 5.2 but crashes often on 4.10, I think
mostly on webpages with flash content.

Never? Wow. I can't say that here but I consider a weekly crash or so for
a browser nowadays an excellent achievement ;-).

Because it's so difficult to reproduce it's also hard to find the cause :-(.
I plan to try linux-opera on 4.10. Should do flash and java... (being unable
to get java working was what made me switch from Opera to Firefox couple
of months ago)
