i also had this problem with my initial account on a fresh install of 10.04 64 bit. installed adblock+, greasemonkey, xmarks, flash, then later installed icedtea java. applets work fine, but cpu usage goes to 100% and doesn't cease until firefox is closed. under a new profile (moved .mozilla) plug-in works as expected.
unless it is caused by one of the addons i have, the only other thing i can think of is that i installed icedtea plugin and then used it without restarting firefox. will try to install addons again to see if problem comes back. -- Applets use 100% of CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551328 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
