I've been having this problem since edgy, and still see it after upgrading to feisty (with a flash 7 plug-in that works in other OSes). Either the XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 or changing depth to 24 (which it should have been anyway, no idea why edgy set to 16) seems to fix it. Vaio SR17, S3 Savage video card.

[Bug 14911] Re: Flash plugin problem with ARGB visuals causes crash
Like the person above me I am also still getting these crashes. I am on Kubuntu Feisty, clean install as of a few hours ago, nothing installed manually, all from the repos. (relevant software) Firefox 2.0.0.3 flash 9.0.31.0.2ubuntu1 nvidia-glx 1.0.9631 (relevant hardware) nvidia geforce 7800gt msi p6n sli-fi motherboard - nforce 650i chipset - realtek hda audio chipset Everything is 32bit, I can trigger this fairly reliably by going to google video, loading a video, letting it play for a few seconds then hitting the page-back button while the video is still playing. This will lock the browser around 10% of the time. It also seems to be more of a flash problem than a Firefox problem since I can get the same crashing behavior in konqueror. I have also tried the "XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1" options without effect, and my xorg file has 24bit color as the default, and the only mode available uses 24bit. XGL/Beryl stuff has not been installed on this machine so there is nothing fancy in that regard. -- Flash plugin problem with ARGB visuals causes crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/14911 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

[Bug 14911] Re: Flash plugin problem with ARGB visuals causes crash
I am running stock 5.10 (breezy), with stock FF 1.5.0.9 (came on Breezy cd). I installed the flashplayer plugin 9 from labs.adobe.com site. No upgrades to 5.10, or FF have been done, except for the flashplayer addition. It was recommended I follow the fixes listed in http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1673725&postcount=23 , which I have done. Color Depth was already set to "24" (Nvida GeForce4 mx 4000 (PCI) 128 mb card (using supplied drivers), running at 1280x1024/75hz resolution); and, there is no composit section listed in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, so there was no need to comment that out. So only solution I could do was to add the extra line "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 " in the /etc/firefox/firefoxrc file. After rebooting computer, Firefox still crashes. Waiting on my 6.06 LTS cds (on dial up do downloading is not an option). At this point, I am lost for possible solutions at this point. Any help will be appreciated. -- Flash plugin problem with ARGB visuals causes crash https://launchpad.net/bugs/14911 -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
[Bug 14911] Re: Flash plugin problem with ARGB visuals causes crash
The following was the case with Dapper, which also had the Firefox crash problem: After seeing the problem, post-performance of 'apt-get dist-upgrade'... I saved all the downloads, recovered the previous day's backup and commenced, on a hunch, to manually upgrade Firefox, rather than upgrading the whole enchalada at once (as I usually do, with 'apt-get dist-upgrade'). Instead, I performed 'apt-get install firefox' after the downloads were all completed. The result was that the 'mozilla-firefox' package was removed ...and with that, the flash plugin/Firefox bug was also removed. Subsequent 'apt-get dist-upgrade' then upgraded the remaining packages --minus mozilla-firefox, of course. -- Flash plugin problem with ARGB visuals causes crash https://launchpad.net/bugs/14911 -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
