Title:
firefox crashes on ubuntu 10.10 (amd 64)
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox
I installed Ubuntu 10.10 (AMD64) to my friend's HP-laptop a few weeks ago and
he just told me that apparently either Firefox or the whole operating system
crashes. This happens when he has multiple tabs open and he is watching a video
on YouTube, changes the tab e.g. to Facebook and then back to YouTube. It seems
that the screen goes gray and he can't even move the mouse (I'm not so sure
about this, because he isn't that skilled with computers, so maybe only Firefox
crashes, haven't seen this happening myself). I'm using 10.10 32-bit and I
don't have this problem.
Can this be caused by changing the fonts of Firefox and Ubuntu, or Firefox
add-ons (Google toolbar) and themes (he installed some theme which is not the
default theme).
