Dahc, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
1) To clarify, the issue you are having is only Firefox or Chrome will
crash?
2) How often does the crashing occur?
3) What specifically do you do that afterwards the crashing occurs?
4) After the crash, are there crash files in /var/crash?
5) Is this something that started to happen after an update? If so,
which specifically?

- I have no idea how to fix it at this time. I am using this workstation
- more often these days as it provides a machine on the first floor for me
- to use. Typically, Firefox or Chrome will crash very often.

- Thanks!
