Bug Description
Firefox crashes with the following X error when using DefaultDepth of 16 in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
rob@graybox:~$ mozilla-firefox --sync
adding hook target 'source'
file: Interrupted system call: indexing not performed
The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 116 error_code 8 request_code 146 minor_code 3)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

This happens if flashplayer-mozilla was used with the "Composite" extension in
X.org. If you switch
it off the problem disappears...
(I am using dapper btw.)

Thanks for reporting this bug.
Is this still an issue in the latest Dapper?
If this is a known issue, where is the bug report for that. Maybe we can mark this as a duplicate of that other issue?

This is a duplicate of bug 14911.
Does this happen always ? There is a known problem with Flash and X
