[Bug 571247] Re: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore

 

Here are a couple of really ugly workarounds if like me you have to have
embedded PDFs in FireFox.

1 add an application launcher to the panel with the code     killall npviewer.bin
click on it when acroread freezes up and then refresh your page

2 switch to the 32 bit version of Ubuntu

3 Remove RAM to 3GB or under (this working indicates that nswrapper is
not working properly)

I know none of these are great options but as this is a closed source
project we will have to wait for Adobe to fix acroread and that might be
a while.
