[edgy] firefox crash -- flashplugin-nonfree

You cant attach files when reporting a bug you havbe to report it than attach them using the comment/Attach File link below this comment. Please attach the full crash report located in /var/crash please

Ok, now I can figure out the way

I could have something to do with Shockwave. Yes, I tried to install it. Of course it went wrong in Ubuntu. But also tried it in Windows (under qemu) and a similar problem arised.
Hope it helps

Sorry John, it means you haven't received the crash report yet? I
uploaded (I think) it twice. Where should I attach it?

Moises i said that before you attached it to the bug. I will get to retrace this soon.

The best stack i can come up with is pasted below. Assigning to hjmf to see if he can get a better one.

We are going to close this bug report because it looks that it was caused by adobe's flashplugin-nonfree which we can do anything about it, since it is closed source. You might want to report it upstream directly.

Retraced Thread Stacktrace

Don't know if it's the same problem, but at least there's a crash again.

I've reinstalled firefox and even updated it. But, again, at start up (without even launching it) I've got another crash warning.

I understant that it could be generated by something outside Firefox (flash plugin?) but I expect from a solid product to be other-plugin resistant.

It's there anything else I can do to make firefox run properly again?

Thanks
