Thanks, you are right, uninstalling flashplayer-mozilla 9.0.124.0
indeed fixed the problem.

But I want to use flash :/ At least we know that it's not a problem
with galeon. Apparently iceweasel suffers the same flash-related
problem.

The nicest solution (as I already mentioned) would be a way to turn
flash support on/off from within galeon. See my previous post [1]:

Galeon top Menu:
   Web->Allow Java
   Web->Allow JavaScript
   Web->Allow Flash           (add this one!)

this would easily prevent crashes - I would turn on flash only
when I really need it. And be prepared for a crash.
