When I moved to the 64 bit flash plugin, it would crash Iceweasel on a regular basis. No watching videos required -- just a flash advertisement on a page. I could restart Iceweasel and go back, maybe get a different flash advertisement from the rotation which wouldn't crash Iceweasel and read the page. I'd say 5% of pages would crash Iceweasel. > > But it got to the point where I just moved the plugin out of the way, and live without flash for Iceweasel on amd64. I move it back when my daughter wants to hang out at Club Penguin, which plays nice with my browser. Interesting. I've had the browser crash, but not upon loading any and every flash site with the 64-bit plugin. I am running Chromium dev as well as Sid, but other than that, I couldn't tell you. Flash does crash my browser (actually, I've had Chromium itself reboot my system), but it has been no more frequent or infrequent that when I was using the 32-bit plugin. -- . O . O . O . . O O . . .

I've updated it regularly and it's just perfect. The plugins I use are from adobe's site. regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
