[Bug 98688] Re: Firefox hangs when closing a page with flash running
I think a temporary solution can be found in this bug page... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104470 1. Run firefox and watch a flash movie (e.g. youtube) 2.

[Bug 104470] Re: firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so
I seem to have fixed the hanging problem by using the older kernel instead of the one that comes with Feisty. In the boot menu, select kernel 2.6.15-27-386 instead of 2.6-20-15-386 and firefox will not hang while browsing pages with flash media (like YouTube). Now, does this mean the bug is with the latest kernel and not with firefox or the flash plugin? -- firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104470 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 104470] Re: firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so
It's either we make Adobe fix its plugin or fix Firefox to handle defective plugins better (instead of just hanging). I say we do both with a little more weight on the latter. -- firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104470 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 104470] Re: firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so
Doing an strace on the firefox process after it hangs will always give you this... | $ strace -p 6688 | Process 6688 attached - interrupt to quit | futex(0xac041bd8, FUTEX_WAIT, 6710, NULL I'm guessing process 6710 is the flash process/thread. So it must be that the flash process hanged and firefox is infinitely waiting for it to finish. Opera must be handling it better by not infinitely waiting for the flash process to finish. -- firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104470 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've had this problem even with Edgy although it must be because I already downloaded the latest flash library (9.0) even when the one that came with Edgy was version 7.0 -- Firefox hangs when closing a page with flash running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/98688 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 14911] Re: Flash plugin problem with ARGB visuals causes crash
This still happens on my Ubuntu 7.04 running Firefox 2.0.0.3 using Shockwave Flash 9.0 r31. This can get VERY irritating.

I can confirm this error. os: feisty (Ubuntu 7.04) browser: firefox 2.0.0.3 (Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.3) plugin: flashplugin-nonfree 9.0.31 (Shockwave Flash 9.0 r31) I think this is not a problem with flashplugin-nonfree because the same plugin works fine in Opera.

I think some people have already raised this bug in Bugzilla (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378400).

[Bug 104470] Re: firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so
In my case. it's not a crash but a hang. I'd have to kill the process manually before I can start a new instance of firefox. -- firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104470 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 104470] Re: firefox crashed -- libflashplayer.so
I tried doing an strace (strace -p 32499) on the firefox process, here are the last few lines before it hanged. | shmdt(0xa8fe1000) = 0 | shmctl(1075937401, IPC_64|IPC_STAT, 0xbfa56e0c) = 0 | shmctl(1075937401, IPC_64|IPC_RMID, 0) = 0 | shmdt(0xa9013000) = 0 | shmctl(1075904621, IPC_64|IPC_STAT, 0xbfa56e0c) = 0 | shmctl(1075904621, IPC_64|IPC_RMID, 0) = 0 | semctl(12779521, 0, IPC_64|IPC_RMID, 0xbfa56e58) = 0 | close(95) = 0 | futex(0xaac0bcec, FUTEX_WAKE, 1)= 0 | futex(0xb323ebd8, FUTEX_WAIT, 32679, NULL It seems like firefox (PID 32499) is waiting on process 32679. Unfortunately, I cannot find more information about process 32679. It's not in the Processes tab of System Monitor. When I tried to kill 32679, it also kills the firefox process with the following entry in the strace. | futex(0xb323ebd8, FUTEX_WAIT, 32679, NULL) = -1 EINTR (Interrupted system call) | +++ killed by SIGTERM +++ | Process 32499 detached Hope this helps.

Same problem here. I am using Ubuntu 7.04, Firefox 2.0.0.3, Flash 9.0 r31 on a Sony Vaio.
