Why does Konqueror crash on every page with Flash?
This is a result of a clashing symbol in both the flash plugin and the XFree86 libGLU (OpenGL utility lib). Upon closing an embedded flash view, the wrong function is called which heavily corrupts memory and leads to either immediately or delayed crashes, lockups and worse. The only solution that is currently known is either to install Qt without OpenGL support or to not use the Flash plugin. You can’t combine both until this symbol clash is somehow solved. Unfortunately we cannot do much about this issue, unless Macromedia is willing to help. Another reason for Konqueror to crash on every page using a Netscape plugin is the use of gcc3. Plugins can’t work with gcc3 because they are linked to gcc2’s libstdc++, which is incompatible with gcc3’s libstdc++.
