I was able to find one other person with basically the same crashdump (it was
on pastebin.com so there was no commentary, just the crashdump) from like back
in July with a beta of Lion it seems, on an iMac.
Seems that WebProcess and PluginProcess both crash at the same time as the
Console shows crash dumps from both within milliseconds of each other. The
crash dump is not the same but ends up at the same place.
I created a new vanilla user on my system to see if it was dependent on my
account. Nope. Happens to the new user as well.
Appears to be a bug in the NVidia OpenGL driver. Driving me crazy as it
basically makes Safari unusable for a lot of the things I do in safari
(itunesconnect / github / many other places)...
I installed Google Chrome and am using that and an old FireFox (old due to
compatibility with a site I need for my son's school) for lots of stuff. I
prefer Safari to tell the truth.
I keep sending in the crash dumps as well as one OS X Feedback page on the
problem.
