When I built Firefox with debugging turned on, I couldn't get it to crash. So I don't think it will help in this scenario, but you could give it shot I suppose. I finally wound up removing and reinstalling Firefox, the linux compat layer (f10), the flash plugin, nspluginwrapper, and every trace of the plugin from my system (that I could find). I also followed the Handbook's recommended installation method, and began running "tests". The testing phase was simply opening many tabs with embedded flash objects :) So far, no crash. The only message I continue to see in the terminal from which Firefox is launched is: *** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: no valid NPP -> PluginInstance mapping foun= d It doesn't seem to cause any real problems, so... Anyway, I'm going to keep hammering until something finally breaks, haha ^_= ^ -Brandon
