X crashes with Firefox+Flash

After some minutes or seconds of watching a video using flash (or a flash-based app) X crashes. This does not happen with other browsers (opera or midori, for example).
Since X crashes, I can't see what happens to firefox. Is there a log somewhere?

Firefox 26.0

See if journalctl's output contains something useful.

I switched to HTML5 and disabled the flash plugin and it crashed, so i check the journalctl and found this. If I understand it correctly, kwakd is messing with X's sockets? the issue seems to disappear if I disable kwakd.

That seems to be the case. You might want to notify upstream, of the issue.
