I am getting this on a new install on feisty. On my laptop, where I played all around with apt-get back and forth to get feisty up, it has only occurred so far this morning, and not at all on my older desktop at my house which I installed with the GUI upgrade methods. But on my newest machine, which I did a complete reinstall on last night and this morning from CD, it is doing it a lot.
I believe the browser came up correctly once. I'm not sure how I killed it to make it do this. The complete popup is: "Close Firefox" (on the top bar) then a question mark balloon icon and the following text: Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system. The only other item is an OK button. Unlike the first statement above, I first saw an entry in ps auxw that ended in "firefox-bin", but upon killing it, I tried again to bring up FF and got the same diagnostic popup. I then tried to bring up the epiphany web browser and it doesn't respond at all. I then try completely restarting the machine, and logging in again, but Firefox still fails in the same way. -- firefox: fails to start with "not responding" dialog https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/28436 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
