AFAIK, flash is in public alpha for x64_64 in Linux:

http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
"An alpha refresh of 64-bit Adobe Flash Player 10 for Linux operating
systems was released on 2/24/09. The release versions of Flash Player 10
for Windows, Macintosh, 32-bit Linux, and Solaris are now available from
the Flash Player Download Center."

That would explain the instability you're seeing.
