Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree
I discovered that Firefox v3.0b5 on Ubuntu 8.04 crashes when I tried to
open a web page with Flash content, if the Shockwave Flash plugin
[flashplugin-nonfree v9.0.124.0ubuntu2] is enabled. The error displayed
at the terminal is a Segmentation fault. Example web pages are: (1)
your Gmail inbox (uses flash for chatting):
http://mail.google.com/mail/?source=navclient-ff#inbox (2) Ars Technica
(has flash ads): http://arstechnica.com/index.ars.
Epiphany (v2.22.1.1) on Ubuntu 8.04 uses the same flash plugin and it
too crashes, with the same error, while trying to load these pages.
Firefox v2.0.0.3 on Ubuntu 8.04 also crashes if it uses this plugin.
(This version of firefox was working all right in Ubuntu 7.10 with an
older version of the flash plugin.) The problem vanishes if I disable
the flash plugin.
