flash crashes with segfault often

[doorknob60]

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

Well, often when I load something using Flash (Youtube is the main one, but it's happened at other sites too), the browser crashes with a segfault. I've tried semonkey and firefox, with the exact same results. I just upgraded the flashplugin-nonfree package, and it's no better than the last version was. This never happened in gusty, and it's a pretty big deal to have an important part of many people's life crash on an LTS release of a user friendly distro... I'll try to see if I can fix it, if so, I'll say what was wrong with it. Note that this doesn't happen every time you load something with Flash, maybe about half the time though. Here's my (probably not too useful) terminal output:

austin@austin:~$ firefox
