Thank you for your bug submission. Could you please provide some more information:

What version of Ubuntu are you using (Edgy/Feisty etc)?
What version of firefox are you using?
Does this happen on a particular webpage or randomly?

Could you also please install the firefox-dbg utilities and run firefox from a terminal so that you are able to cut and paste any information it prints to standard output.

To install firefox-dbg type the following in a terminal

sudo aptitude install firefox-dbg

sublimator what version of flash are you using? "apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree" without the " should tell you. please let us know, it seems this is a flash issue. if your not using flash 9 but flash 7 please enable backports repos and sudo apt-get update than sudo apt-get upgrade.

Hi,

I really think the problem is
  libflash-mozplugin which uses libflash0c2

Some more crash-reports:

[John Vivirito (gnomefreak)]

I added flashplugin to this and lets see what the flash people say to be sure.

[John Vivirito (gnomefreak)]

Can you please follow the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs to obtain a backtrace, so we can have a better understanding of what is causing your crash?

[Laudeci Oliveira (laudeci)]

I think the problem is with sites using flash

[Alexander Sack (asac)]

this is a libflash bug (look at trace: http://librarian.launchpad.net/6490752/Stacktrace) ... reassigning from nonfree.

rejecting for firefox.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 alpha?

[s_raiguel (raiguel)]

I've encountered, and discovered a workaround for a very similar bug in the Ubuntu (8.04) Firefox (3.0.3) Modification (0.5) add-on. The Ubuntu Modification add-on is installed by default.

Several pages at www.newscientist.com would cause the browser to crash and close suddenly. I disabled my add-ons one at a time, and discovered that disabling the Ubuntu Mod seemed to cure the problem and the pages loaded and displayed normally. I don't see that any Firefox functionality has been lost, save that it no longer displays the Ubuntu page as its home page.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 9.04 and 9.10 beta?

[s_raiguel (raiguel)]

This is a really old post, and I hadn't thought about this matter in a very long time. For what it's worth, I later found that removing the Ubuntu addon did not entirely eliminate the mysterious Firefox crashes in 8.10, and this was one of the reasons I soon upgraded to 9.04. The problem disappeared completely as soon as I upgraded to 9.04, and there were no further issues with FIrefox later when I again updated to 9.10.
