Now the Tesla page's flash module bit works fine and I can load the playhousedisney.com page, but if I try to click on any of the characters the mozilla window disappears. Mozilla doesn't core dump as the process is still running in the background, but the window definitely "dies." Does this happen to you as well? I have not tried mozilla 0.9.7 yet--which I will soon. But at least increasing the shared memory certainly helped.
