https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809996 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809996#c1 --- Comment #1 from Martin Seidl <mseidl@suse.com> 2013-03-18 13:31:23 UTC --- Sorry, somehow this bug was committed to early. With a pending flash-player update do the following: 1. Have chromium running with some tabs open(doesn't need to require flash) 2. zypper up flash-player Observe: Pages in chromium will stop responding. You cannot open up other tabs. Chromium will eventually say "the tab X has stopped responding do you wish to kill or wait" At this point I just kill/close chromium and launch it again. This happens most of the time. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The intree one is the one that should be used. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I guess that Dirk is confused with Chrome (which comes with pepper-flash, which is the intree one). I have created a separate package for the pepper-flash (which is actually an updated Adobe Flash-player) and this package is available from Packman. With this it would be possible to remove the flash-player that is available from openSUSE. However pepper-flash can only be used with Chromium or Chrome !! It will not work with any other browser or program that requires flash. Within the Chromium settings ( chrome://plugins/ ) you would be able to disable the old flash-player and just have the pepper-flash (Adobe Flash player version 11.6 r602) active. But this will not resolve the reported issue. Chromium is using flash at all times (loaded on startup) and it reacts badly on changes. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As indicated an option would be to use the pepper-flash package from Packman and to disable the standard flash-player in the chrome://plugins. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
