At some point in previous versions I was thinking it might be caused by having little memory that makes something crash (I had 4GB and Firefox goes to creating Swap very fast if it is used for a while), but now I have 8 GB of memory and I see the bug. Must be some other cause but it is a very bad one.

It is a nasty bug making Ubuntu useless, I must restart (at least this is how it worked in previous version of Ubuntu) to get my computer back. I do not know if there is a coincidence, but I started Firefox and then the bug was triggered.
