Title:
System lockup when firefox/flash access a certain web page (10.04.2
LTS)
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox
When firefox (3.6.16) stays connected for a period of time (minutes to
hours) to a web page (http://www.wunderground.com) which uses Flash
heavily in updating its radar and incoming weather information (Flash
version: 10.2.r159), the result can be a system lock up (mouse moves,
but no menu item, panel item, or window button responds). In some
cases I have been able to get my system back via restarting X via a
ALT-SysRq-K command; in other cases, only a hard reboot. I have
experienced this both on my Dell 1525N laptop and my ZaReason desktop,
both running the same version of Firefox/flash.
The reason why I suspect these two programs is that on the same page,
when leaving the page loaded using Windows Vista and Firefox, Flash
will crash and sometimes Firefox too (though not causing a system
lockup).
