Computer Shutdown At YouTube.com

this is crazy but whenever I'm watching videos on YouTube.com the computer will shut down. It happens every time, but not on every video. Any ideas?

the computer actually shuts down?
Or do you experience a system crash?

Sorry! It is a system crash with no errors at reboot that I can see. I have checked syslog and the end of it only says things about network and eth0. Any ideas? I would be so happy if I could fix this.

Are you using the generic driver of you distribution or the nvidia-driver ?

Strange, what video card, do you have latest nvidia driver (9746) and latest final release of adobe flash plugin?

my video card is the Nvidia 7600 GS, and from what I'm told, yes I have the latest driver set. I update my system all the time. How can I determine what version of Adobe Flash I have?

I do not see an about anywhere on the page. It's detecting that I do not have shockwave installed.

All these pages say they're for the windows platform.

It works for me in all browsers, latest version is:
9,0,31,0, please update.

I have mine in /usr/lib/browser-plugin
and works in every browser.

Saturday, January 20th 2007, 12:14am

okay, I've updated to 9,0,31,0

should I be installing shockwave? Can you point me to a linux install of it?

Should this flash update now fix the youtube shutdowns? Is it safe to test it?

Shockwave it is not for linux. You can try now.
If it crashes please provide an output of:
cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status

it is a pcie card. terminal says cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status does not exist, but i haven't tested it yet.

What crash exactly do you experience?

Xorg restarts, crashes to console, kernel panic...?

system powers off, and it just happened while I was listening to music, watching a video, and on ups.com.

Oh, maybe you have power supply issues.

I think I had my ram overpowered. I just changed the voltage. I also think I had ACPI set incorrectly. I just tried another setting. I also set my cpu to its lowest recommended voltage. We'll see what happens here.
