If I go to YouTube, the videos play fine if they remain minimized. However, as soon as I click on the maximize button, firefox will crash and simply "disappear." Firefox package: www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-3.0.5 Flash package: net-www/netscape-flash-10.0.15.3 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to youtube with this browser/flash combo 2. Watch a video 3. Click on Youtube's maximize button on the bottom right of the video. Actual Results: Firefox crashes. Expected Results: Video is supposed to maximize. I am running stable amd64. I am not able to get a stack trace or anything of that sort. This problem even happens after a fresh Gentoo install. If I recall correctly, this did not happen on the previous stable versions of flash in portage.

Please try with newly released net-www/netscape-flash-10.0.22.87 (Presently ~amd64) This now comes with native 64-bit plugins, so perhaps between that and the 64-bit java plugin from dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.6.0.12, you can break away from firefox-bin entirely ;)
I haven't heard any response yet, so I'm assuming this is either fixed with the latest version, or you have reported the bug upstream to Adobe... Sadly since this is closed-source software I'm severely limited in what I can do to help you out.
Same problem still exists (for me at least, more distro's / users suffer from the same problem): www-client/firefox-bin-3.5.2 www-plugins/adobe-flash-10.0.32.18 x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-173.14.18 sys-libs/glibc-2.9_p20081201-r2 I read some 'upstream' info about this at: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=493541 Seems this problem occurs only in combination with: -Firefox (problem doesn't occur with Opera here, others tell Konqueror also works fine) -Nvidia proprietary drivers + hardware acceleration (disabling hardware acceleration also solves the problem) -Youtube (problem doesn't occur with Vimeo full-screen) -Using the 'LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libGL.so" hack provided in another upstream bugreport doesn't solve the problem Summary of upstream bugreport / fix as far as I understand (actually, I almost understand none of it all, but anyway:) There seems to be a problem in Mozilla's jemalloc, and a patch is in FF-versions from 3.5.3-pre, at least the versions from 24 Aug (nightly build) and probably later on.
