What "works" for me - doesn't crash, but sometimes can't handle the content - is: firefox-3.6.8 (or) seamonkey-2.0.6 nspluginwrapper-1.2.2_7 linux-f10-flashplugin-10.1r82 installed per the Handbook. A minor annoyance is the wrapper doesn't exit cleanly and tends to leave hung jobs; not noticeable resource sink, until you have 20+ of them .... Robert Huff
