Are you using firefox from the Fedora package or the upstream binary? I used what ever was on the DVD when I first loaded the OS just after fc 8 was released. The nice thing is I researched as much as I can and kept trying things to fix it. The one thing that worked, twice, is rpm removing firefox and then loading it through yum. The first time I did this it worked like a champ. Then a few weeks back while doing a software update the problem stated happening again, I don't remember what was on the list of updates. I rpm -e --nodeps firefox again and yum installed firefox and it has been working ever since, not even a single crash. Between cnn & youtube - I watch at least 10 - 20 vids per day, weekends a lot more, and lately it has not skipped a beat. I never had any issue with previous versions of FC, and I usually load my linux box fresh within a week or two of a new release...fc 8 was the first I have ever had this issue... Hope it helps.. vm OK, so if I understand correctly, it is not problem now, right? I will put this bug into NEEDINFO and unless you will tell me in 30 days, what the problem and how to reproduce it, I will close this bug. If you see that it is the problem, please, provide at least output of the command rpm -qa firefox libflashfupport swfdec\* flash-plugin gstreamer-plugins\* pulseaudio\* (you will quite possibly not have some of these packages installed -- you have either swfdec or flash-plugin, so don't worry if some of these packages won't be found). Correct, it is not a problem now, but it has returned once before during a software update. Unfortunately I didn't pay attention to what the updates are. I ran your command now while everything is working correctly: pulseaudio-libs-glib2-0.9.8-5.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-pulse-0.9.5-0.4.svn20070924.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.6-7.fc8 pulseaudio-module-gconf-0.9.8-5.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.15-1.fc8 pulseaudio-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-esound-compat-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-utils-0.9.8-5.fc8 firefox-2.0.0.10-3.fc8 flash-plugin-9.0.115.0-release pulseaudio-libs-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-module-x11-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-core-libs-0.9.8-5.fc8 If it flips out again I will run the command again.. vm Closing this as NOTABUG (anymore), and please reopen if the issues arises again (with additional information) Created attachment 294473 [details]

Pic of Updates this week..
I did my weekly software updates and like clockwork the first video I tried watching crashed firefox and created a bgreport {attached}. I also attached the list of software updates to my system.. I ran the command you wanted after firefox started to crash again: streamer-plugins\* pulseaudio\* pulseaudio-libs-glib2-0.9.8-5.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-pulse-0.9.5-0.4.svn20070924.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.6-7.fc8 pulseaudio-module-gconf-0.9.8-5.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.15-1.fc8 pulseaudio-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-esound-compat-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-utils-0.9.8-5.fc8 firefox-2.0.0.10-3.fc8 flash-plugin-9.0.115.0-release pulseaudio-libs-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-module-x11-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-core-libs-0.9.8-5.fc8 I uninstalled firefox and yum installed it again with no reboots and firefox still crashed. I removed firefox, rebooted, then yum installed it again and have been watching videos without problems ever since... I ran your command again while things are working well: pulseaudio-libs-glib2-0.9.8-5.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-pulse-0.9.5-0.4.svn20070924.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.6-7.fc8 pulseaudio-module-gconf-0.9.8-5.fc8 firefox-2.0.0.10-3.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.15-1.fc8 pulseaudio-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-esound-compat-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-utils-0.9.8-5.fc8 flash-plugin-9.0.115.0-release pulseaudio-libs-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-module-x11-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-core-libs-0.9.8-5.fc8 vm Thanks for letting us know. Reopen, please, with the additional information if the problems shows up again. Created attachment 295075 [details]
Bug report of crash while watching youtube vid
This was after firefix was updated to 2.0.0.12.
Last nights software update got Firefox to 2.0.0.12. After watching a few vids it crashed and created a bug report... pulseaudio-libs-glib2-0.9.8-5.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.15-3.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-pulse-0.9.5-0.4.svn20070924.fc8 gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.6-7.fc8 pulseaudio-module-gconf-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-esound-compat-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-utils-0.9.8-5.fc8 firefox-2.0.0.12-1.fc8 flash-plugin-9.0.115.0-release pulseaudio-libs-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-module-x11-0.9.8-5.fc8 pulseaudio-core-libs-0.9.8-5.fc8 (In reply to comment #7) > Created an attachment (id=294473) [edit] > Bug report Please, don't hijack closed bugs for something else than they were originally about — CNN is supposed to be played with totem plugin not flash. As if we didn’t have enough flash bugs ;-) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 365861 *** |
