Thanks for the response. To be honest, I'd forgotten about this bug. It was so weird/specific to begin with (only one website ever caused problems). The issue also seems to have disappeared on upgrading to 14.10. It never occurred to me to upgrade the BIOS - the utilities are always Window-specific and I'd never gotten around to learning how to do it on Ubuntu despite the fact I haven't run Windows since Ubuntu 7.10...
Since the issue doesn't occur on 14.10 shall I mark it as resolved? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1341387 Title: Opening foodnetwork.ca website crashes xserver Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This doesn't occur every single time I try to open the website, but fairly consistently on the first instance after starting the computer. (After one xserver crash it usually works the second time.) I'm using the pipelight plugin to enable the Windows Flash player (since most websites will not stream shows these days using the older Linux plugin) but this crash occurs when opening the main page, before the flash plugin is called. What happens: I click on the icon for the foodnetwork.ca main page on the Firefox new tabs page, and X crashes immediately, sending me back to the login page. What should happen: the page should load, allowing me to click on the 'videos' link, taking me to the page where I can select the program I want to watch. I have never encountered this problem on any other website, but run into it regularly on this site.
