I think a temporary solution can be found in this bug page...

1. Run firefox and watch a flash movie (e.g. youtube)
2. Open a new firefox window and browse as usual

Firefox hangs when closing a page with flash running

I seem to have fixed the hanging problem by using the older kernel
instead of the one that comes with Feisty. In the boot menu, select
kernel 2.6.15-27-386 instead of 2.6-20-15-386 and firefox will not hang
while browsing pages with flash media (like YouTube).
Now, does this mean the bug is with t
It's either we make Adobe fix its plugin or fix Firefox to handle
defective plugins better (instead of just hanging). I say we do both
with a little more weight on the latter.

You received this bug notification because
Doing an strace on the firefox process after it hangs will always give
you this...
| $ strace -p 6688
| Process 6688 attached - interrupt to quit
| futex(0xac041bd8, FUTEX_WAIT, 6710, NULL
I'm guessing process 6710 is the flash process/thread. So it must be

I tried doing an strace (strace -p 32499) on the firefox process, here
are the last few lines before it hanged.
| shmdt(0xa8fe1000) = 0
| shmctl(1075937401, IPC_64|IPC_STAT, 0xbfa56e0c) = 0
| shmctl(1075937401, IPC_64|IPC_RMID, 0) = 0
| shmdt(0xa9013000)
In my case. it's not a crash but a hang. I'd have to kill the process
manually before I can start a new instance of firefox.

I think some people have already raised this bug in Bugzilla
(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378400). Although I can

look the same. Firefox hanging when browsing Flash pages.

I can confirm this error.

browser: firefox 2.0.0.3 (Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.3)
plugin: flashplugin-nonfree 9.0.31 (Shockwave Flash 9.0 r31)
I think this is not a problem with flashplugin-nonfree because the same
plugin works fine in Opera. I think it affects Firefox and oth
This still happens on my Ubuntu 7.04 running Firefox 2.0.0.3 using
Shockwave Flash 9.0 r31. This can get VERY irritating. I tried all those
ARGB "fixes" and color depth fixes but it still doesn't work.

I've had this problem even with Edgy although it must be because I
already downloaded the latest flash library (9.0) even when the one that
came with Edgy was version 7.0

Same problem here. I am using Ubuntu 7.04, Firefox 2.0.0.3, Flash 9.0
r31 on a Sony Vaio. Seems to be a problem with Firefox because it
doesn't happen when using the same Flash plug-in on Opera.
