openSUSE 11.3 Firefox and Flash Plugin

English Applications
1

Operating System: openSUSE 11.3(64-bit)
Browser: Firefox 3.6.10
Flash Version: 10.0.45.2

When Firefox starts, it spawns another process called npviewer.bin.
However, after a while the command-line usually outputs the following:


*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPObject RandomMemoryLocation is no longer valid!
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPObject RandomMemoryLocation is no longer valid!
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPObject RandomMemoryLocation is no longer valid!

Do any of you know what these error messages mean? By the way if I kill the npviewer.bin process, will I have to restart Firefox to view multimedia that uses Flash?

Thank you for your help!

I would re-install nsplugwrapper - to see if it sorts out the problem as a first step

nspluginwrapper (npviewer.bin) is what makes 32 bit flash work with _64 system

caf4926, so is nspluginwrapper causing the issue?
