I am running stock 5.10 (breezy), with stock FF 1.5.0.9 (came on Breezy cd). I installed the flashplayer plugin 9 from labs.adobe.com site.
No upgrades to 5.10, or FF have been done, except for the flashplayer addition.
It was recommended I follow the fixes listed in http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1673725&postcount=23 , which I have done.
Color Depth was already set to "24" (Nvida GeForce4 mx 4000 (PCI) 128 mb card (using supplied drivers), running at 1280x1024/75hz resolution); and, there is no composit section listed in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, so there was no need to comment that out. 
So only solution I could do was to add the extra line "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 "  in the /etc/firefox/firefoxrc file. After rebooting computer, Firefox still crashes.

Waiting on my 6.06 LTS cds (on dial up do downloading is not an option).
At this point, I am lost for possible solutions at this point. Any help
will be appreciated.
