Libflash crashes Firefox on Kubuntu 5.10 RC1 (amd64 version)

Bug Description

I installed libflash-mozplugin from the universe/libs.
When I surf to a website with Flash content, Mozilla Firefox crashes immediately.

When I start Firefox from konsole, the following
messages are printed when it crashes.
-------------------------------------------------------------
NP_Initialize
New
SetWindow
Destroy
The program 'firefox-bin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadShmSeg (invalid shared segment parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 31 error_code 168 request_code 146 minor_code 2)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Does this still happen with 5.10 or dapper? And as the console output suggests, could you post the output with --sync?
