Running Fedora-fc11 with 3.5beta4 and flash-9 plugin freezes the flash display.
"File name: nswrapper_32_32.libflashplayer.so
Shockwave Flash 9.0 r48"
Running 3.0.11 and flash-9 plug-in everything works fine.
Running Fedora-fc11 with 3.5beta4 and flash-10 plug-in of any sort crashes Firefox right off the screen and produces a FALSE URL report! It says either about:blank or the previous URL. 
For purposes of convenience I will return to 3.0.11 and flash-9, but I thought you would like to hear my experiences so far. Incidentally, having the Adobe site crash ones browser is a BIG no-no. Someone's libs are not playing nice.

With the above OS, Firefox-3.0.11 using flash-10 plug-in also crashes off the screen.
