Two things: I think I made an error submitting it to this Bugzilla when, in fact, I am running Centos 6. Can you please advise if I ought to move the issue to their Bugzilla or, given that RHEL and Centos are supposed to by "in sync", it is okay to keep it here. Second, I discovered that it has nothing to do with BBC. I clicked a link to look at the upcoming Bud Super Bowl ad to see whether it was, as the news claims, "somewhat" political. After the ad ran, I got the ABRT. I am enclosing snapshot of what I am seeing in ABRT since there is something wrong in my system that does not allow me to use ABRT to automagically report issues Created attachment 1247031 [details]

I saw that flash-plugin 24.0.0.221 was released today and downloaded to see if the problem was still there. As opposed to usually hanging/crashing in less than 30 minutes, it has been happily playing for 4 1/2 hours so far ... and still playing as I write this update As there is nothing in this bug except my reports (as in no developer or other user feedback), I can't tell if adobe knew about this bug (either from this report or some other report) and explicitly fixed it. For all I know, they made improvements which just so happened fixed the problem. Given that my local classical public radio is in a pledge week (yes, I did give), I will have lots of evenings to exercise this latest release. Will report back in a week or so whether this promising event holds up for alot more than 4 1/2 hours straight. If that holds up, I will push 24.0.0.221 to my RHEL/Centos 7 system to confirm it works there (I kept that on 11.2.202.664 until this issue is/was resolved). As noted, I might have made a mistake reporting to RHEL and not Centos, but since I didn't get a reply about "move to Centos Bugzilla", I will keep the thread in this Bugzilla. If this bug was explicitly fixed and this bug report had anything to do with it, please send thanks to whoever fixed it. It held up for a 3 days non-stop running (with volume off at times) so I think this report can be closed. It appears that I can't close it |
