[Bug 107093] Re: firefox crashed
Alexander, Please read my post #2: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/107093/comments/2 It is written 3 times in this bug report: this is not a crash, it is a freeze/lock up. The original title was System freezes (possibly Gecko), which was changed, incorrectly, to firefox crashed. There is no crash report, No exceptions are raised, no signals exchanged, no core dump. The debug trace doesn't show anything of relevance. I've removed firefox and all associated configuration files and reinstalled anew. No change. I've tried using strace to pinpoint a particular system call with no results. It is a standard firefox install: no plug-ins, no extensions, no java, javascript only remove or resize windows. The lock-up only happens in Gecko based browsers (firefox, galeon, epiphany). I'm using Konqueror since a week (I'm on Gnome btw), its the only way I can access launchpad without having to restart my computer every 5 minutes. I can only guess that this is due to a background process, but I had no luck relating it with cache cleaning. If you or somenbody else can suggest some suitable breakpoint I can try to debug it further. -- firefox crashed 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

Could this actually be linked to cache cleaning? Any idea how I could check this? -- firefox crashed 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

[Bug 107093] Re: firefox crashed
Hola Hilario, my apologies; I have included this info upstream and forgot to mention it here: The firefox profile is the standard one, I have not added any extension, plug-in or theme. As I mentioned the problem is a freeze, not a crash: no exceptions are raised, no signals exchanged, no core dump. The freeze is random and not reproducible; some sites (notably launchpad) lead to more frequent freezes. Most of the freezes are during a download, but not always. Anything you can suggest to obtain more info? Perhaps some breakpoint/catchpoint/watchpoint/tracepoint I can set in gdb to try to collect some useful data? -- firefox crashed 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
[Bug 107093] Re: firefox crashed
I don't think it is relevant, but for completeness I should mention that Java is disabled and Javascript is enabled only to move or resize windows. -- firefox crashed 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
[Bug 107093] Re: firefox crashed
After this morning (17/4/07) update the problem (at least temporarily) disappeared. I'm using Firefox ever since and not had a single freeze (had a couple just before the update). Does this make any sense to you!? -- firefox crashed 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
[Bug 107093] Re: firefox crashed
Oh well, just had 2 consecutive ones. BTW, I don know why you changed the title of this bug. It is not a crash, but a system freeze. -- firefox crashed 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
