I agree... after using it this evening (flashplugin-firefox with no 
other supporting ports) it has proven very unstable.  A few sites 
worked... but that was definitely the exception.  Many failed either 
proving unresponsive or by pulling firefox down completely.

Z.Z. suggested a few additional linux ports.  I may give them a try as well.
