In my case, the problem was that I uncommented some lines in libmap.conf, but forgot to uncomment the line with the path. It looked like this: # Flash6 with Mozilla/Firebird/Galeon/Epiphany/Konqueror #[/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so] libpthread.so.0 pluginwrapper/flash6.so libdl.so.2 pluginwrapper/flash6.so libz.so.1 libz.so.3 libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3libstdc++.so.5 libm.so.6 libm.so.4 libc.so.6 pluginwrapper/flash6.so After uncommenting the second line above, everything was fine. i tried to use fixit from sysinstall by using the emergency shell, to delete libmap.conf (asuming its cuzing the problem) but from the emergency shell u cannot see that file, In order to edit libmap.conf, the partition where it lives needs to be mounted.
