Update: I found that the crashes stopped happening when I removed the Flash plugin. I had installed the 64-bit pre-release plugin from http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/64bit.html because the bugs in the 32-bit version were causing problems. However this was months ago, yet it was only yesterday that I started experiencing any stability problems with it. For now I've gone back and installed the 32-bit version via apt-get. It seems to be usable for the moment.
I should also add that I have been running BBC iPlayer in Prism (from the Ubuntu repositories), and I have had poor stability, but nothing remotely as bad as I was having yesterday in Firefox. Only rarely did this iPlayer Prism actually crash as such. -- firefox extremely crash-happy, especially when flash video is involved https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/529308 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
