Bug Description

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

When I am watching a flash video on, for example, youtube, if I close the firefox window, EVERYTHING freezes and I have to restart X. I am using Ubuntu Feisty Fawn Herd 4 and latest Firefox release, 2.0.0.2.

The thing is that when firefox crashes, it crashes with the whole desktop, so I have to go to a virtual terminal and restart GDM.

Is there any file that contains the bug report?

Higinio, please could you try to reproduce this bug using native ubuntu packages for flasplugin-nonfree and sun-java5-bin packages.

apport error log:

We cannot handle third party extension crashes. In case you manage to crash firefox with ubuntu native extensions please reopen this report. Thank you in advance.
