update: I found out, that the problem does not occur until I start to load any pages, so opening firefox alone is not enough to trigger the bug. Also, with my newly created system user profile the problem has not occured yet. This seems to get really weird. -- firefox locks system https://bugs.l

Yes, I can see it. The Intel XAA problem was concerning performance issues, right? I never had those and I can't tell if my system runs better now, because everything was working perfectly before. I have tried setting up a new firefox profile, but that did not solve it. I will now try to create
