Subject: Debian-Stable and KDE crashes
To: debian-user debian-u...@lists.debian.org
It turns out, that Debian-stable (6.0.3, both i386 and AMD64) has
constant KDE crashes, by
Package: debian-installer
Version: 20110106+squeeze3+b1
Severity: important
Default Debian-6 KDE installs gnash, an extremely unstable
component, that constantly crashes KDE Konqueror, when user accesses
any flash-enabled website (such as www.amd.com).
This makes for very bad newbie user

Hi,
debian-boot it's all about debian installer development and not about
desktop applications experience. So it's out of scope.
I guess the right thing to do it's to contribute with
improvements/information, if possible, in the bug reports to the
affected package.
In case of discussions

Bug No longer marked as found in versions
Upstream package is clearly unstable in this case, and no reason to
push it into debian stable, esp. for default install.
Pushing gnash is like pushing an alpha version of pulseaudio into
Debian-stable. (something that Fedora does happily, but simply NOT
appropriate behavior for Debian to do)

gnash is not only installed with KDE, from what I see as its
installation is triggerred by the desktop task, that's common to KDE
and GNOME, at least.
It is triggerred by browser-plugin-gnash.
What do you suggest as alternative? I don't think it is a good idea to
not provide any
Quoting Alexey Eromenko (al4...@gmail.com):
Unfortunately the Free Software community has not yet developed stable
flash player, therefore I suggest to avoid installing _unstable_
software by default.
The rule of thumb is to avoid regressions in general, and crashes in
particular.
Thank
Hi,
from the info you supplied (thanks!) from a previous installation it
seems the keyboard uses module hid-apple.
I have checked kernel-wedge package and that module it's already
included in the input modules [1] for the installer's kernel.
One thing you can try is to connect a 2nd
Hi,
Thank you for your mail.
I tried your suggestion (from your previous mail), here the results :
- used distribution - today's daily build of wheezy-netinst CD
- tried with hitting F6 twice at the very first screen, before choosing
an install method,
the monitor screen just flickered. I
Hi, Miguel,
Here the results from the other test, with a second keyboard :
- I used an old Samsung Pleomax wired usb-keyboard (although it is
always reported as chesen)
- the Apple-keyboard was unplugged before booting off the wheezy-cd
- when reached the main menu screen, I went again to the

Wouldn't that be a bug in konqueror-nsplugins? No plugin should be able to
crash the browser

lightspark is an alternative. Of course, it's also experimental, but
who knows, it may be a bit more stable/complet at this point? I
haven't really looked into it. Just something worth considering...
The end game, which I am increasingly sure will happen by the next
browser-plugin-gnash from backports doesn't make konqueror crash anymore so
someone could identify what changes fix that and include them in 6.0.4. I'm
not sure to be able to do that and upstream is pretty dead especially about
KDE things. Patches welcome.
By the way on KDE I guess it should be
