Mozilla 2001100902/Linux-i386, Shockwave Flash 5.0 r47

Mozilla crashes as soon as menu-animation made with Flash loads and starts.
Other flash animations on the page continue to work, but Mozilla's interface is
no longer responding.

1. Visit the above URL.
2. Wait it flash menu on the left loads and starts.
3. Observe that Mozilla is no longer responding.

Reproducability: Always.
Ok, actually it hangs, not crashes. Updating Summary and adding keyword.

are you playing music through your sound device at the same time?
No music played, actually the machine I'm using has no sound configured at all.
BTW, I've tested with nightly from yesterday and the problem persists.
hmm does not having configured sound actually prevent that anything tries to
access /dev/dsp

Reporter:
If you have lsof installed try a /usr/sbin/lsof /dev/dsp

Does anything turn up? Just thinking that you may have an unsatisfied sound
daemon of sorts hanging around even if sound isn't configured - depending on
desktop environment.
I think i have the same bug, but i am not really sure...

I have the following version:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.5) Gecko/20011012

I have installed the flash plugin (5.0 r47) just by copying the files
libflashplayer and Shockwave.class into the plugin directory. When i now try to
acces a webpage containing any flash animation mozilla does not do anything. I
have to kill with the process manager.

I am not playing any sounds.

When i resize the window, the resized area becomes grey. the rest stays as usual.

Reproducability: Always.

If you have any questions:
mailto: b.birkenbach@t-online.de
WFM on Linux Redhat 7.1 with CVS build from 12212001 for flash plugin 5.0 r47.
First, http://www.logos.pl/ has new content and is no longer causing this.
However, for a demonstration of this problem surf to http://www.britney.com/
(yeah, my sister's been using the machine again) and click on the orange box in
the bottom-right part of the page. A new window will open, also with some Flash
animation. After a few second of playing stuff in both windows, Mozilla hangs
and only Flash anims continue.

Tested with 2001122106/Linux-i686.
Well, isn't it a DUP of bug #58339?
