    Exclamation HD 6670 locking up while watching YouTube videos.

    Sometimes, while trying to watch YouTube videos, my machine hard locks. I suspect this to be a driver issue and/or general issue with Flash (especially as this only happens with Firefox).

    AMD Radeon HD 6670 2GB. Using the default FGLRX drivers that come with Trusty (13.350.1). The motherboard is a Sabertooth 990FX R2.0, with BIOS revision 2501.

    Has anyone else been having this issue?

    Bump, because it looks like nobody else has been having similar issues?

    I've noticed this machine is locking up mostly when using Skype for calls and watching some videos from some sites (found BBC News in particular seems to trigger lock-ups). More rarely it may do so while playing some games (noticed this with Civ V). At this point it hard locks.
