[Cialug] Old Debian packages

[Daniel A. Ramaley]

Nevermind the noise. I did a bit more digging and have discovered the 
problem is not Iceweasel. The problem was the "flashplugin-nonfree" 
package. There must have been a recent update to that package that 
causes Iceweasel to die. <sigh> Now i have to find a replacement. Any 
suggestions? There's a "flashplayer-mozilla" package, but it just plain 
doesn't work (shows a useless blank space where flash movies should be). 
There's also a "swfdec-mozilla" package, but past experiences leads me 
to believe it won't work on the majority of flash objects.
