i can't (obviously) comment for other people, but I may have discovered the cause of my problems. It turns out that many of my problems recently were probably caused by a ram stick gone bad.

I can not detect a pattern at all. In one case I had loaded profile three, and then clicked to the search bar, and started typing, before it crashed. In the case before that, same profile, I had loaded up three or four pages, and then it crashed. This has happened on three different profiles, with three different sets of addons and settings. (Profile numbers here, don't match attachment numbers...) Profile one has multiple addons installed, including NoScript, RequestPolicy, Brief (RSS reader), WebDeveloper Toolbar, Status-4-Evar and others. Profile two has few addons, NoScript, Zotero, Status-4-Evar, and a couple of others. Profile three has no addons, and all plugins are disabled, and is configured to start in Private Browsing mode by default. I do radically different browsing in the three profiles, and so the types of website are radically different. Each time it crashes, the Mozilla Crash Detector starts up, and I have generally been reporting the crashes. apport has loads more information, in loads more detail, after this: ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: firefox 14.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-41.94-generic 2.6.32.59+drm33.24 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-41-generic i686 Architecture: i386 BuildID: 20120713225625 Date: Mon Jul 30 10:10:01 2012 DefaultProfilePrefSources: prefs.js EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" - Release i386 (20091028.5) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_AU.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash Profile0BrokenPermissions: extensions/{db72cc3b-578c-43b2-8adb-b0a91803e9bf}/chrome.manifest (0400) extensions/{db72cc3b-578c-43b2-8adb-b0a91803e9bf}/chrome/spamcontrol.jar (0400) extensions/{db72cc3b-578c-43b2-8adb-b0a91803e9bf}/defaults/preferences/spamcontrol.js (0400) extensions/{db72cc3b-578c-43b2-8adb-b0a91803e9bf}/install.rdf (0400) Profile0PrefSources: prefs.js [Profile]/extensions/{8f8fe09b-0bd3-4470-bc1b-8cad42b8203a}/defaults/preferences/prefs.js [Profile]/extensions/[email protected]/defaults/preferences/linkwidget.js [Profile]/extensions/{45d8ff86-d909-11db-9705-005056c00008}/defaults/preferences/defaults.js Profile1PrefSources: prefs.js Profile2PrefErrors: Unexpected character 'e' before close parenthesis @ [Profile]/extensions/[email protected]/defaults/preferences/zotero.js:11 Profile2PrefSources: prefs.js [Profile]/extensions/[email protected]/defaults/preferences/zoteroOpenOfficeIntegration.js Profile3PrefSources: prefs.js Profile4PrefSources: prefs.js SourcePackage: firefox To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1030786/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
