Hi All
On F11, x86_64, kde 4.3
Is it just me, or on more than on occasion quitting Firefox does not kill the process? Sometimes it does, but more often than not it does not.

It can take a few seconds to clean up (so if you try to restart immediately it complains about already running), but I've never seen it fail to quit. Besides, I doubt it's a KDE issue (it did the same with 4.2). Perhaps some extension is refusing to die?

Maybe after running flash. Here it simply refuses to die

I also run flash (the Adobe 64-bit version) but I've never seen this.

Oh... and I tested this under gnome. This does not happen under gnome at all.

Yes, frequently, although I think the latest update may have cured it. FWIW, Thunderbird doesn't shut down properly here either, and can take 100%cpu. Another PITA is nsplugin-viewer (if I've remembered its name correctly). After closing FF I often still have that taking 99%cpu.

This has been a problem for a good many weeks, if not a couple of months.

Probably slightly OT, but regarding F11 does anyone know what happened to libflashsupport. It seems to be missing from the repo.

It hasn't been needed for quite some time now. Flash should "Just Work TM" without it nowadays.

It's obsoleted since the flash-plugin works directly with PA (Flash 10).

FYI, all the latest, current flash-related advice is on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Flash

From the Website.
"The libflashsupport package is no longer needed with Flash 10 and has been removed from Fedora 10. The Flash plugin now calls the appropriate ALSA functions directly, and in the default configuration ALSA delivers sound to PulseAudio"
Hmmm... Funny.... not my experience regarding sound. I did not get any sound at all. Mind you.... I do not have pulse audio installed becuase it made other problems for me.
This problem occurred with the 32 bit version channeled through nsplugin-wrapper and with the 64 bit pre release.
I have sound now, since I manually compiled libflashsupport and placed the library in the appropriate plase /usr/lib64. However, the video and sound are out of sync.
Another thing to note.... I am currently using the current x86_64 pre release it isn't 100% stable, but it is I would say about 90%. So, nspluginwrapper is no longer installed on my system as well :)
Anyhoot.
The info was useful. But still, without libflashsupport.so I had no sound at all.

I'm not to sure if i should trust the wiki page with the above part:
"This page describes how to solve the Flash Player 9 problem by building and installing an experimental plugin, libflashsupport.so, which adds support for ESD and PulseAudio."

Actually... I don't at all. I ran an experiment and found that with pulseaudio fully installed, 32 bit flash and nspluginwrapper for fedora repo, if libflashsupport.c was not compiled... No sound. Same is true with 64 bit flash.
However in the process I solved my bigger pulseaudio issue... that is regarding pulseaudio interfering with my network when running at least one online game with wine. It turns out that firstly, at least with the version available in koji, 1.26, nss-mdns is a dependancy. which provided the clue. Sure enough, after nss-mdns was installed, avahi-demon was disabled and mdns was enabled things seemed to work.
This is one of those things that make you go hmmm.
