Re: Problems with Flash Plugin
Fabio,
If Firefox is working fine without the Flash plugin and not working with
it installed, then it is likely a bug in the plugin. If this is the
proprietary Flash plugin from Adobe, the place to report it is:
https://bugs.adobe.com/flashplayer/
When you run Firefox below, is it only starting up a homepage tab, or is
it restoring a crashed session? "acroread" is Adobe's PDF reader, and
I'm not sure why that is being looked for. You may have other things
going on at the same time as the possible Flash issue, in which case
you'll need to experiment to tease the issues apart.
You may need a stack trace for the software vendor to diagnose a
segmentation fault caused by Flash; for instructions, see:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StackTraces#Obtaining_stack_traces_from_Fi...
You can run "firefox -safe-mode" to get the application started without
any extensions, if that helps you diagnose or recover. Recording the
exact version numbers of Firefox and the plugin where you see this
problem would be helpful, and if downgrading to a lower version fixes
it, that would also be good to note.
Sorry I'm not familiar with Arora, but the same principles apply.
-B.

Oxygen style has been detected, loading Plastique style.
- KDE's 4.2's Oxygen style has too many issues with Qt 4.5 features
that Arora uses and while many of the issues have been fixed for KDE
4.3, KDE 4.2 users get a really ugly Arora. Once KDE 4.3 is released
this check will be removed. If you are still want to use Oxygen add
the arguments -style oxygen on the command line.
