If I go to http://www.niagaracc.suny.edu, CRASH!
No crash with a day old CVS build, Linux.
Reporter: Please always include build ID in bug-reports.
ahh there is a tiny flash animation on the page.
Reporter: Do you have flash installed? 
Do you have plugger installed?
If you can, please test a talkback enabled build and add the Talkback ID you get
if you crash there again.
This is a RH7.1 system w/ pretty much all updates.  Mozilla 0.9.8 rpms.
Plugger is installed, flash is installed. (page ok w/ Netscape 4.77)
I installed the latest flash & java plugins (Shockwave.class made me think to do
this).  Still crashes badly, w/ both shockwave & java.  Note that the java
plugin was not installed before; I just copied the libwhatever-oji.so from sun's
jdk1.3.1_02 to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.  Doesn't appear to work.

When I ran the talkback mozilla-install script, it started downloading then
crashed. :-(
Severity: normal → critical
Keywords: crash
>Plugger is installed

Can you upgrade to the newest plugger version ?


Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.8+) Gecko/20020202
worksforme.  flash animations work ok.
Flash 5.0 r47, plugger 3.3-4
At home now; RH72 (somewhat uptodate), mozilla 0.9.8 rpms, plugger 4.0 installed,
flash plugin 5.0 r47 - still crashes. :-(

Does the java plugin have to be installed/working for flash to work (guessing by
Shockwave.class)?  I've never found the black magic to get that working, either.

ALSO, running the talkback mozilla-install crashes for me at home, too.
FOUND THE REAL BUG!  It's only when Mozilla is run over the network!  I used a
Linux-based X terminal all the time, and last night it occurred to me maybe it's
a network thing.  Sure enough, it works on my laptop locally, but if I log into
my laptop across the network and run it, BANG.  Note that NS4.77 works fine over the
network, and previous versions of Mozilla have, as well.

X terminals are becoming more popular w/ LTSP, and we use them extensively at
Roanoke College, so I'd consider this critical.
ahh.. thanks David. Then this is actually in the release notes: Dup of bug 58937
