Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
I am no expert but it seems that FF crashes and hangs and eventually causes
Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit to crash. I looks like it happens after video content is
viewed, (Like on CNN video) It could be related to a problem with theGnome
version of Ubuntu ... 11. After two crashes I did change to ...12 the newest
one for Ubuntu 9.04
however in the past I just get the feeling that it is related to the flash
plugin and or Java and it is too bad that Firefox does not have a better way to
install adobe flash player within Ubuntu.
As of today this most recent install has not crashed, causing a catche to
remain open and the synaptic to not work and when it is going to crash it will
say Firefox is running after you have closed it, and it is not visible on the
desktop.
It almost seems like some web page code is writing to where the grub is, but
again I am no expert.
I did add arora browser and did not add epiphany so if it does happen I will
have a way to try to google for help.
I do wish however that more security and better plugin support came from FF.
The older versions of Ubuntu seem to not be having any problems, 8.04 on a 32
bit laptop seems fine but the 64 bit version I think is having some issues.
Apart from that I hope a fix comes soon.... We will not use video news and we
did install the opt out cookie add on this time, in case it is a cookie causing
the problems.
Thank You
