Here is a partial stack dump after visiting my.yahoo.com with flash-6 installed: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x48976ace in strcmp () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4 (gdb) bt #0 0x48976ace in strcmp () from /usr/lib/libc_r.so.4 #1 0x4977ad63 in SecurityContextTable::GetContextForURLCore () from /usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so #2 0x4977ad2a in SecurityContextTable::GetContextForURL () from /usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so #3 0x497b454e in EnterSecurityContext_NS::EnterSecurityContext_NS () from /usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so #4 0x497b49e8 in nsScriptablePeer::StopPlay () from /usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so So, obviously, flash-6 does not work all the time. (This is on a relatively recent 4.10) /Joe
