Adobe Flash 10 + (since beta 2) and recent versions of swfdec are the first plugins to + make use of "windowless mode", and attempting to visit flash-enabled + sites that use "windowless mode" will cause an immediate segmentation + fault when rendering wmode flash content on the page. See: + http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2008/07/addessing_wmode_crashes.html + + This issue is has been fixed upstream and due for release in xulrunner + 1.9.0.2, and Felix Geyer has successfully patched Hardy's xulrunner + 1.9.0.1 for testing purposes. You can check these packages at: + http://ppa.launchpad.net/sniperbeamer/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xulrunner-1.9/ + + It is important to be aware of this issue in xulrunner-1.9 to avoid the + inevitable confusion with bug #192888. This bug is a separate issue, and + many users will encounter this bug as a side-effect of upgrading to + Flash 10, which is necessary to fix bug #192888.
