Juergen: yes, the real fix should be inside the Adobe's blob [according
to bug tricket on pulseaudio it's some kind of race condition inside
plugin itself where pulseaudio only triggers the problem and not cause)
:) However using nspluginwrapper has more advantages as well: if every
plugins would use separated environments (eg security policies can be
applied more easly to them), it can be good for security and also helps
load multiple cores/CPUs because running as a separate process. It also
helps firefox not to be so slow to react when a plugin inside the
firefox process is too resource hungry. So, even this fix does not cure
the real problem, it's the best besides the fix of the plugin itself
(only adobe can do it), and also it can be good for crash protection in
future similar bugs. And has got other advantages too, I've described
(security, better usage of multiple CPUs/cores). So using
nspluginwrapper is a good thing or at least some kind of similar
separation should be developed for firefox to allow to separate plugins
from the core borwser itself better. Sure, this was IMHO and AFAIK :)
