Version: (using KDE 4.0.83) Installed from: SuSE RPMs OS: Linux Go to nvidia.com. The flash will attempt to load for the first few seconds. The screen then repaints, drawing the rest of the webpage, but erasing the flash app. The crash reporter then says the nspluginviewer has crashed. This happens consistently with nvidia.com and randomly for other sites with flash ads.
If you can reproduce the crash, you should install the debug enabled packages and provide the backtrace. Read this page for the instructions: http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports Thanks
I have installed the debuginfo package that corresponds with konqueror-plugins. I am not sure which other debuginfo packages I have to install. Please tell me if this backtrace is still useless or not. Here is the backtrace: Application: nspluginviewer (nspluginviewer), signal SIGSEGV [?1034h(no debugging symbols found) (no debugging symbols found) [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] [New Thread 0xb645c6d0 (LWP 4808)] [New Thread 0xb1f88b90 (LWP 4814)] [New Thread 0xb2841b90 (LWP 4813)] [New Thread 0xb3042b90 (LWP 4812)] (no debugging symbols found) [KCrash handler] #6 0xb4255d59 in g_type_check_is_value_type () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 #7 0xb425c710 in g_value_init () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 #8 0xb4240b04 in g_object_newv () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 #9 0xb4241752 in g_object_new_valist () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 #10 0xb424189e in g_object_new () from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 #11 0xb421dd12 in gdk_pixbuf_new_from_data () from /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 #12 0xb421bd65 in gdk_pixbuf_new () from /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 #13 0xb470e5c0 in ??

Unfortunately, nothing can make the backtrace better because it's crashing deep inside flash, which is of course a closed-source thing. What may be helpful is to know: 1) What version of flash you are using (about:plugins will tell you) 2) Are you on 32-bit or 64-bit? 3) If on 64-bit, what version of nspluginwrapper are you using? Thanks.
1.) Adobe Flash 9.0 r124 2.) 32 bit openSuSE 11 I hope this helps.
I'm also running opensuse 11.0 with kde4 factory repository enabled, and with flash 9.0.124 and konqueror 4.0.84 I don't have flash crashes at least in nvidia.com . This is running from VirtualBox, don't know if that affects anything ( it would if the problem originated from Xorg, but the backtrace doesn't seem mention anything about Xorg). Also, are you using gtk-qt-engine ? It's supposed to cause trouble with flash.
Disregard my last question, don't know what i was smoking, flash in konqueror has nothing to do with gtk-qt-engine of course .
re: comment #6: quite a lot, actually. If you use the Qt3 version of gtk-qt-engine, Flash cannot possibly work in nspluginviewer, since flash pulls in gtk, with pulls in gtk-qt-engine, and which pulls in Qt3 into the same process that is using Qt4, which just can't work, not with ELF, anyway. Probably not an issue w/this bt, though.
Aha, QEventDispatcherUNIX here, too. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 165622 ***
