I have (at least twice) already used the supposedly automatic system to collect and submit the information that is supposed to diagnose these new Firefox problems. In the past, before I lost hope for Ubuntu, I also volunteered to undertake additional diagnostic measures or to run additional tests (within reason). I have seen possibly related problems in Firefox running on some of my other machines--even including one of the Windows boxen--but this particular machine is the only combination that is so utterly problematic.
At this point I'm actually getting close to retirement. Maybe I'll even do some volunteer programming when I have the time, but at several periods in my career I was a professional programmer at various levels, so I know how difficult it is to write good code. Mostly at database levels, but sometimes as low as assembly. Unfortunately, I was only a second-string programmer--but that means I appreciate the value of first-string programmers and I know that they are worth paying for. My company even provides some programmers to support open source projects-- but the truth is that we are going to tend to focus our precious first- string programmers on our most important projects... A browser that closes randomly is not very useful for serious work. -- [MASTER] various unrelated crashes for firefox-3.0 and xulrunner-1.9 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/228806 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
