Ubuntu X crashes - Was Re: [plug] Greetings

[Kai]

I've had a few updates since I emailed about the crashing, thought 
something in there might've changed but it still happens....haven't been 
able to pinpoint anything yet.

While I'm at it, anyone on 8.04 have problems sometimes getting Flash 
animations to play ? I have flashblock, so click the PLAY symbol and 
7/10 tries, after a page refresh, the flash animation doesn't play, jut 
gives me a grey screen where the animation should be.
