I have a Dell Latitude C600 (though I don't think that should matter) I have occasional firefox crashes. To test out what happens when I see flash content, I went to the strong bad http://www.homestarrunner.com site. It kept crashing. then i thought "I'm smart, I'll install the flash block plugin flashblock.mozdev.org for the next time I hit flash content" So I did. then when I go back to the above site, same thing, boom, firefox crashes I get this error: The program 'firefox-bin' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadShmSeg (invalid shared segment parameter)'. (Details: serial 40 error_code 149 request_code 142 minor_code 2) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) What am I doing wrong? thanks.
