Flash 9 player for linux

Matt Chotin said on FlexCoders:
Well, check with the next build [of the player],
it could be that the beta we put out had real problems.

Does this mean we can expect a 2nd beta of the linux plugin I wonder ?

One that maybe fixes the SIGSEGV crash during shutdown
(
#7 0xf5f3825e in NP_Shutdown ()
from /usr/lib/browser-plugins/libflashplayer.so
#8 0xf6da0df2 in XtAppProcessEvent () from /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6
) ?
I can't tell if this just because it's a 32-bit plugin in a 32-bit browser on
an otherwise 64-bit O/S or not, but it does occur on all three (2xSuSE 10.0 and one SuSE 10.1) boxes we tried. I've submitted it as a bug report too, but they are not publicly searchable and this is :-)

...and he shall appear...

It appeared to still crash in the same place when you refresh, so I re-reported it. But rather irratatingly when I come to regather the stack trace for the nice man from Adobe who wrote back, FireFox is now fine, and only Konquror is crashing still.

Other members of the team here have tried the updated plugin and also report the Firefox crash has gone, hurrah !
