Package: iceweasel
Version: 38.3.0esr-1
Severity: important
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Note: Happens most often during Iceweasel session or soonthere after or trying
to close Iceweasel. Bug may be elsewhere, i.e. in KDE compositing/rendering
but do not know where to place. Has also occurred switching between concurrent
KDE sessions (but after using iceweasel). So please move to where it better
belongs.
Too often, running iceweasel or closing it, will get errors shown in dmesg:

Rarely, I can get out and keep going. Usually, must hard-reboot the system.

Version: 115.12.0esr-1+rm
src:iceweasel has been superseded by src:firefox-esr in version
45.0esr-1 in March 2016. Transitional packages to ease upgrades were
provided in the wheezy, jessie, stretch and buster releases. The
transitional packages have been removed finally before the bullseye
release in August 2021.
After regular security support for buster ended in August 2022 and LTS
support ended in June 2024, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
