64 bit Flash crashing Firefox - Not just Arch

Hi everybody,

I was wondering if anybody else is having a problem with 64 bit Flash. This isn't Arch specific, as it has happened on a custom Ubuntu remaster as well.

The graphics card is on a laptop - Ati 9600 and it happens with vesa and ati/radeon drivers. I thought it was the graphics card or xorg, but this doesn't happen with a 32bit Dreamlinux with 32bit Flash.

Youtube runs fine, whereas sites like http://www.goober.com/ with flash video just shutdown Firefox. I'm wondering of there are different types of flash video, does anybody with more knowledge know about these things?

When Firefox is started from the terminal (to look for an error message) it just says segfault.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
