darudey 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2010 Hi, every now and then my entire OS crashes (blank screen) during the playback of a flash video, e.g. video on youtube.com. I don't know any other way but to do a hard reset. I'm using flash-player-plugin-10.1.53.64-1plf2010.0.i586 Mandriva One 2010.0 I'm very much a newbie, but I have been running Mandriva since Jan. I'm happy to post any logs you can point me to. [moved from Software by spinynorman] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

David Batson 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2010 I and some other users on another forum were having problems such as this only when running the flash videos full screen. Try running the flash videos in a window instead of full screen. It doesn't seem to be caused by the video card, as some users had nVidia and others ATI. Sorry, I don't have time to search for that other forum thread just now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
