Flash is messed up in Epiphany and Firefox as well. I'm wondering-if I replace flash will it solve the problem--also which flash to use. It would be useful if a workaround was published.

[Milan Bouchet-Valat (nalimilan)]

Adding a task for Epiphany, as on my box (bug 617030) the crash doesn't occur in Firefox.

[Robin Roth (robinro)]

Got the same bug on my machine with epiphany (but not firefox). This showed up only recently, but it might be it's because I usually don't use flash websites. See crash log attached.

Using epiphany 2.30.2 on ubuntu maverick

[Robin Roth (robinro)]

still not fixed, is it?
Even if it's some kind of annoying flash-issue, there should be at least some kind of more specific error message and epiphany should not crash at all.

[Milan Bouchet-Valat (nalimilan)]

I think you should try installing the new 64-bit Flash 11, that will probably solve the issue. Anyway, upstream doesn't support 2.30 now (we're at 3.2), so they're probably not going to fix it now...
