It crashes for me, too. I upgraded a computer today from dapper to edgy, which worked finde so far. But firefox crashes when flashplugon-nonfree is installed and any site with flash content is visited.

It does NOT crash if I use a terminal and start firefox using

$ export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
$ firefox

(I searched for my problem and came across this hint.)

Maybe it's worth mentioning the display on this computer runs at 16bpp. Flash seems to have (had?) some problems with that. Nevertheless, I habe absolutely no problems under dapper.
