114385 - mozilla crashes when trying to show the default plugin dialog

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Plamen Nikolaev]

When i visit a web page containing flash, mozilla crash right after displaying a
blank dialog box.  This behaviour is consistent through the 0.9.4 0.9.5 and 0.9.6 
talkback enabled .tar.gz dists

My system is a heavily upgraded redhat5.2 , libc-2.1.2.so, gtk-1.2

Additional observations:

 java, with the java plugin actually works

 after manually copying the flash plugin to the mozilla plugins directory,
about:plugins is ok, but 0.9.6 freezes on http://www.dir.bg/
but crashes on  http://people.fas.harvard.edu/~pyang/base/allyourbase.swf

new behaviour with 0.9.6 - on startup, mozilla displays 1 and sometimes 2
talkback dialogs, but continues normally

yeah, I did not copy flash since it came installed. I removed the plugin and 
accessed a test page. The default plugin dialog comes up fully (no blank text) 
and I see no crash. 1210 build, redhat 6.1 linux

Didn't find dupes, only bug 76505 talking about xt_event_prepare().
Marking NEW.

I cannot reproduce this on rh7.2 using 2002020222 mozilla build.
[e-mail] could you try the latest mozilla bits please?

Comment 9

[serge (gone)]

I'm resolving this as WFM.
