Package: chromium Version: 11.0.696.71~r86024-1 Severity: important What follows are the steps and commandline results I can take to reproduce it. When I run "chromium http://www.israelnationalnews.com" I get the message "The following plugin has crashed: Shockwave Flash" in chromium itself. Trying to launch a new xterm gives the error: "Could not launch 'Terminal' \n Failed to fork (Resource temporarily unavailable)". Trying to run "free" in an existing terminal gives: "Failed to fork (Resource temporarily unavailable)". As soon as I close chromium it returns to normal. It happens immediately and reproducibly although the exact details of what happens on each occasion differ. I originally intended to reopen #604954 (and the choice of test site was entirely motivated by that) but I was not sure it was the same issue. I was experiencing the issue with other websites and tried to look through the bug reports before proceeding.
