Just an update to my comment #19 (a week ago) - I haven't experienced any of these freezes since I upgraded gtk2-engines-oxygen to version 1.3.3 with the patches mentioned in the Emacs bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs23/+bug/1142213. The patches might not be relevant so it's possible that the latest upstream version fixes the freezes.
I can provide amd64 package if there's interest. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/963736 Title: thunderbird and firefox freeze at random : must be killed and restarted Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Thunderbird freezes at random. I must kill it then reload it. Sometimes the freeze happens when sending a mail. I had no problem in 11.10. It happens several times a day. The only pattern that I can currently see is that the freeze happens frequently when thunderbird is using the network. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu precise (development branch) Release: 12.04 $ dpkg-query -s thunderbird Package: thunderbird Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: mail Installed-Size: 45256 Maintainer: Ubuntu Mozilla Team <ubuntu-mozillat...@lists.ubuntu.com> Architecture: amd64 Version: 11.0+build1-0ubuntu1 [...] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/963736/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
