I must correct my above software list. I forgot that due to other problems with the latest nvidia driver, I was really running: Software: Ubuntu 8.04 64 bit Firefox 3.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.3 linux-generic 2.6.24.18.41 linux-restricted-modules-generic 2.6.24.18.41 nvidia restricted driver
When I switched to the free nv driver under the latest kernel, the problem went away. Software: Ubuntu 8.04 64 bit Firefox 3.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.3 linux-generic 2.6.24.19.21 linux-restricted-modules-generic 2.6.24.19.21 nv free driver -- Firefox is VERY slow rendering pragprog.com; becomes almost unusable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207454 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
