I encounter this on a daily basis and it is *hugely* annoying. The main 'trigger' as I see it is the length of the page; two sites where I see this is on Stack Exchange chat transcripts pages (example: http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/35/2011/2/25), which can be very long, and JavaScript Garden (http://bonsaiden.github.com /JavaScript-Garden/), a single page JavaScript language quirks reference.
Neither page have very heavy JavaScript. The bug is reproducible every single time when trying to use autoscroll on either of those site. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566412 Title: Autoscroll in Firefox can freeze these at once: Firefox, keyboard, mouse, and possibly other things -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
