Thanks for your replies, Paulo and John.

I had no idea that the code was written in assembler (I'm only a user, not a programmer, so all code is Greek to me).

I know that it is different, but it might have the same cause. I already reported it (bug 661385). But since I had no reply, I wanted to try whether any of these fixes could work.

I have downloaded the script, but invoking "./fix-flash.sh /usr/bin/firefox" gives me the following warning:

./fix-flash.sh /usr/bin/firefox
objdump: /usr/bin/firefox: File format not recognized
objdump: Section '.plt' mentioned in a -j option, but not found in any input file
Can't find memcpy call in /usr/bin/firefox PLT

Sorry, but again it's Greek to me. How should I use the fix?

Thanks for your help,

Pablo
