Any freeze/crash is certainly a bug. And certainly serious enough to be worth reporting. The error messages above are most likely not the cause, though. The gtk errors are from flash, which tries to use gtk even though it is running inside a non-gtk application. This happens on all flash sites, usually without crashing.

As long as it is set, it doesn't matter what it is set to.
Since you know how to get the debug output I assume you know how to set an environment variable :)

Thanks eirik,
Well I know that it is not set & I know to run export, or setenv. But I do not know what I am supposed to set this variable to? Would something like:
setenv $OPERA_KEEP_BLOCKED_PLUGIN=on
do the trick?
If this environment variable is important why wasn't it set in the place?
BTW, I noticed that libflashplayer.so was not listed in /opt/opera/lib/opera/plugins/ so added a symlink to /opt/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so, but opera will still refuse to play You Tube videos - perhaps related to this problem? -- Regards, Mick

Those two messages exist on my system because I do not have Java installed.

I've added a symlink from opera to /opt/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so and it doesn't seem to crash as often anymore (but still crashes occasionally). I wonder if this is flash related. It won't play YouTube and similar videos although it downloads them fine. Is this the expected behaviour? -- Regards, Mick

I'm wondering if the flashplayer plugin uses some java functions?
Try installing java, and see if that stops the crashes.

No, if java is not installed, it should not make opera crash. Java is much more likely to crash opera if it is installed than if it's not :)
Yes, I mean that. Those error messages results from our attempts at keeping java from crashing opera. If java is not installed, there's no problem. If java is installed and you still have those error messages, opera may crash as soon as it tries to use java. A simple workaround is, of course, to turn off java support in opera (e.g. on the F12 menu).

Yes (except probably without the '$'?).
Or (bash-style): export OPERA_KEEP_BLOCKED_PLUGIN="I hate plug-ins" Or even: export OPERA_KEEP_BLOCKED_PLUGIN=""
Opera doesn't care what you set it to :)
> If this environment variable is important why wasn't it set in the place?
It's not important. If it is set, opera will hang (at least for a while) whenever a plug-in hangs. If it is not set, opera will time out hanging plug-ins (I think if the plug-in has not returned to the main loop for 20 seconds) and kill it.

If you go to "prefs->advanced->content->plug-in options" you will find a list of all plug-ins opera knows about. If you find shockwave flash in the list, then the .so file is found, at least.
Then you might want to check prefs->advanced->downloads, find "application/x-shockwave-flash", and check that it is set to use the (correct) plug-in.
Though, of course, if opera kills the flash plug-in that should be running the youtube video, it certainly won't show :)

I think that I fixed the shockwave-flash problem. I changed the plugin from Shockwave Flash - /opt/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so to Shockwave Flash - /opt/operalib/opera/plugins/libflashplayer.so. Believe it or not, You Tube videos now play fine although I cannot explain why Opera will not follow the path into the netscape plugins . . . any ideas?
Meanwhile, the crash problem is really uncanny: opera 9.20 also crashes on http://www.weather.com
I am becoming convinced that this is a weather related bug! :-))
Anyway, setting the OPERA_KEEP_BLOCKED_PLUGIN="no" did not stop the crash taking place. The crash of the application is permanent (i.e. 7 minutes later it is still frozen and the CPU fan is running):

Yes, I'd forgotten about that. At least some versions of flash refuse to run if they are installed in a path where one of the components is "netscape". I don't remember the details anymore.
I think you can actually use a hex editor on the flash plug-in, search for "netscape" and if you just change that text (making sure to keep it the same length, obviously...), then flash starts working. (Not that you'd actually want to do that...)

Try (as root) running "ldd /opt/operalib/opera/plugins/libflashplayer.so" and see if any of the dynamically loaded modules are missing.

This only works for some sites, for instance your modification breaks MLB.com's Gameday. Nice to be able to see Youtube without IE, and nice to have multiple users to watch both Youtube and Gameday.
