SOLVED: [blfs-support] Firefox - slow menu and right-click response The right click menu in Firefox is now fast again. I disabled Pulseaudio which tried to load ConsoleKit. This did not work sine I have unstalled ConsoleKit. === details === I found this: /var/log/sys.log Jan 25 09:13:47 lfs pulseaudio[2565]: [pulseaudio] module-console-kit.c: GetSessionsForUnixUser() call failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit was not provided by any .service files Jan 25 09:13:47 lfs pulseaudio[2565]: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to load module "module-console-kit" (argument: ""): initialization failed. Jan 25 09:13:47 lfs pulseaudio[2565]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Module load failed. Jan 25 09:13:47 lfs pulseaudio[2565]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to initialize daemon. Jan 25 09:13:47 lfs pulseaudio[2562]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed. I commented out the text below in /etc/pulse/default.pa #.ifexists module-console-kit.so #load-module module-console-kit #.endif I restarted and then the problem with the Firefox menus disappeared. The root cause is probably that I uninstalled ConsoleKit. This was intentional, but I failed to recognize the side effects.
