Hi Paulo,

Have you had a look at the Firefox bug list? I have recently noticed similar
behaviour with other Flash apps in FF3.5 on a 32bit Fedora 11 install.
Though I tend to mess around with my box more than I should, I assumed it
was me and haven't seriously looked into this.  Though you symptoms seem
staggeringly simmilar to mine.

Cheers
Callum

I'm having strange behaviour with 64bit firefox and the 64bit beta version
of Adobe flash.  So I want to try the 32bit version of firefox with the
32bit flash from Adobe, but there in 32 bit version of firefox available
through the 64bit repositories.  If I try the 32bit version of firefox from
firefox.com it crashes all the time running the 32bit Adobe flash.

The problem I'm having is this: I have a subscription to safari books
online, when  I login to safari in one tab and start reading a book, I can
read the contents without a problem, but if I bring up a second tab, login
to safari and start reading another book the page is blank.  Safari uses
flash to display the book's contents.  Even if I bring up the same book in
the second tab the contents are blank.

There is a comment of the safari books on line site that indicates possible
issues with 64bit firefox/flash so how do I download a 32bit version to
test?
