Yes, a proper shutdown is definitely the appropriate response to the first signal. If the lock has been removed, then subsequently running nsProfileLock's handlers should be harmless. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/73536 Title: MASTER Firefox crashes on instant X server shutdown Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “firefox-3.0” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Firefox crashes when X server is forcefully torn down (e.g. by pressing ctrl-alt-backspace) and a crash report gets generated on next login. (Original Report: I've reproduced it once on my machine with the following steps. With, oh, about 5 tabs open, I just pressed ctrl-alt-backspace, logged back in when the X server restarted, and FF crashed with a bug report when Gnome tried to restore the session. It's not terribly important, I don't think anyone does this very often, but maybe it'll be helpful. ) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/73536/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
