Is this just a horrible Flash implementation, or is it the number of different Flashes running at the same time that might cause trouble? I haven't had a problem with other streams (Hearts of Space, Slacker)... Don't know. There's a Flash Uninstaller you can run to clear out any residual Flash versions, and then reinstall the 10.1. I'm on a dual G5 PowerMac with 10.5.8 FlashPlayer 10.1b3. Pandora Radio seems to play OK without panic for a few minutes. I'd suggest either using the Flash Uninstaller and then reinstall 10.1, or reinstall the latest Combo Update. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

iMac KP
My nephew gave me his 800 MHz iMac--the one with the hemispherical base and articulated arm. Because it's quiet, I use it for a music server with a connected stereo system. It has a 320 Gb HDD and 1 Gb RAM (new from OWC). I did AR of Tiger. Everything seems to work great, except when listening to Pandora, it will kernel panic. Sometimes it will run an hour or so, but will always end in panic. Logs give no clues. My gut instinct tells me to suspect Flash, due to its poor implementation on PPC Macs and heavy use on pandora.com. The latest Opera works best. Firefox will consume more and more memory until it bursts into flames (a slight exaggeration). Has anyone else had this trouble, and what did you do to fix it?
