Re: Fwd: sound problem with firefox 3.6



if you do not install adobe-plugin does not see the maps.

ps-ax output appears when you open video youtube.

Bother.  Alright, we'll have to try something else then.

That seems improbable: as far as I know google maps doesn't use flash at
all (_javascript_ yes, but _javascript_ is built into the browser, not an
adobe plugin).

are you saying that this error was generated while trying to access
google maps?  I wonder what google maps is doing that would call on
nspluginwrapper.

That's a lot of stalled or idle npviewer processes.  Do they appear all
at once, or is it one process per attempt to access youtube?
