I installed firefox 3 from ports in the pre-release phase (via
marcusmerge) and rebuilt it as needed to keep it current with the port

and keep it open (whether I am using it, or I have it minimized) that it
will eventually cause Xorg to consume all available CPU. If I kill ff3
it will sometimes allow X to recover, otherwise I have to completely
exit X and restart to get it back to normal.
I have since re-installed firefox 2 in order to confirm that things work
properly with it open, and all is well, so it pretty much has to be ff3
that is the culprit.
Anyone else seeing this?
What's version of FreeBSD? I have seen similar report with your in
freebsd-gnome@ and only happen in -CURRENT, but when rebuild all apps then
the problem is gone. Right now, we have Firefox 3.0.1 in ports tree.
BTW: Don't use marcusmerge anymore, unless you want to be a beta test
again in MC. ;-) In MC ports-stable, I am working on add USE_WEBPLUGINS
and I would say about less than 20 ports left that need to be add.
