I know that - but a freeze != oops - at least not necessarily. Which
means it could very well be a different issue now that vbox is gone.

Or, it could be the same issue with different incarnations: with vbox
you get the corruptions and without it, you get the freezes. I'm
assuming you do the same flash player thing in both cases?

Here's a crazy idea: can you try to reproduce it in KVM?

Thanks.
