[Bug 141613] Re: npviewer.bin crashed with SIGSEGV

[Scott Wegner]

It should be noted that, before you install the 64-bit alpha driver,
you should first completely remove the flashplugin-nonfree and
nspluginwrapper packages from your computer.  There's an article which
describes the procedure here:
http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-Adobe-Flash-Player-64-bit-on-Ubuntu-8-10-98076.shtml

Although really, we should try to limit the discussions here to the
npviewer.bin bug.
