I'm experiencing this bug only when attempting to resize text in Firefox using ctrl+mouse wheel. If I use ctrl++ or ctrl+-, I don't have a problem, but ctrl+mouse wheel locks up the system for a period of time and maxes out one of my CPUs. After a number of seconds or minutes, FF catches up and the text resizes. Attempting to revert text with ctrl+mouse wheel produces the same result (freezing up).
An excerpt from my strace is attached that pretty much sums up what I was seeing. The "gettimeofday" was the most regular expression that scrolled by, usually in blocks of 6-10 (was going too fast for me to count). I'd imagine that ETIMEDOUT and -1 EAGAIN are the relevant parts, but I'm not a coder... ** Attachment added: "strace exerpt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9904617/stracepartial -- System freezes (possibly Gecko) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
