Mozilla Prism crashes in F11

[Gilmar Machado]

Hi,

I am running version 1.0b1 (available on the official site) on Fedora
11 x86. The application crashes on any site that contains flash
objects. In the terminal the only error message is "segmentation
fault"

Pages with no flash objects opens normally.

Someone has the same problem?

Well...if your firefox crashes on flash content with desktop effects
disabled...then you have some other underlying problem as that shouldn't
happen.  It doesn't happen here, for example.  So, if I were you, I'd
try to fix that since I can envision your having other problems at some
point.

FWIW, I can't enable desktop effects since this is a virtual F11....

please try this  go to  system --> preferences ---> Desktop Effects   
and click on enable desktop effects, then restart you system , now try 
any site with flash player , may be www.youtube.com  ...   and see your 
problem will go away

really that worked for me ....  if I disable desktop effects my  Mozilla 
firefox  crashes when I open any flash sites

FWIW, found that prism wasn't aware that the flash plugin was
available.  Fixed that...and then it crashed as you've indicated....

I could not locate the 1.0b1 download....  URL?

Anyway, testing on 0.9 on a 32 bit system....  Flash does not
display...but Prism does not crash.

Sounds like this is something that should be reported to Mozilla (if it
hasn't already been done) rather than here.
