hi
first: flash crashed on slitaz on hdd, but just sometimes
my problem is that flash crashes with live cd non-stop. max is 10-15min but regulary 1-5min when in use.
on youtube and on websites with flash content.
on opera: just application crash massage.
on slitaz webbrowser and midori the whole program crashes and is closed.
ive an ibm thinkpad t40 with 512mb ram and some radeon grafical card.
im not an expert with computers but ive tryed set opera that just a few or nothig is saved in cache and ram, but nothing helps.
when flash crashes in just a few seconds after reload the website i close session and log in. then ive a chance for a few minutes without an crash. mayby this helps to know.
im happy for any help but pls in simple words or step by step explanation.
thanks

You're running out of RAM.
Let's put it this way: The LiveCD uses about 160MB of your RAM. Now add to that the extra space being taken up Opera and the fact that it's a RAM whore. The flash package also takes up a bit of space, and the system keeps a copy of the compressed packages too. Most browsers also externalizes it's flash player, so the act of playing something flash related takes up some more RAM for each instance of it.
All that adds up and your RAM runs out which crashes Flash videos - and the rest of the LiveCD system.

so u mean there is no chance? no matter if i use opera, midori or tazweb browser?
but then why this doesnt happened when i used slitaz or ubuntu/lubuntu with hdd. wwith ubuntu my ram was just the system running about 300-400mb full and no crashes or sometimes but it was ones in 2hours.

Because SliTaz LiveCD runs in RAM using a RAM Disk - As in it copies the WHOLE filesystem into RAM. Other LiveCD tend to run off the CD/DVD itself.
Using something other than Opera might help. Midori is a good pick if you get a copy of Flash that works for it. Try this package by mojo: http://www.mediafire.com/?kcqbi507wdqng5k - It's a little older than the latest flash, but it's been reported as working the best without any crashes even on older systems.

i found this thread allready. but u need ver. 11.1.102.63 or a better one.i made the mistake not to saveit on usb.
11.2.202.243 is catastrophic. at the moment im using the plugin from your website. its a little bit better but 11.1.102.63 worked best and time till crash was acceptable

I didn't have a copy of the package, but I did have a copy of the file so I just remade the package. You can get it @ http://www.trixarian.net/downloads/flash-11.1.102.63.tazpkg
Why Mojo chose to delete all the other packages he made only he'll know...
