[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1990030] Re: Webpage in Firefox crashes computer
[Expired for firefox (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.] ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Expired -- 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/1990030 Title: Webpage in Firefox crashes computer Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: I could not reproduce this today, but the web page at https://celebratingsweets.com/big-chewy-ginger-molasses-cookies/ crashed my computer. This website has every advertisement, popup, and video known to man on it. I had a monitor connected to my laptop by an HDMI cable, and I had the Firefox browser (I have the latest version 104.0.2, 64-bit) open in the laptop screen to this web page. This was the only window I had open (the only other [user] program running was wallch, which rotates the desktop background image), when the screen went blank after a period of inactivity, and the screen wouldn't redraw when I moved my finger on the laptop touchpad or pressed the space bar to wake it up. It just stayed black, ctl-alt-del was not recognized, nor were any keys, and the only thing I could figure out to get it back was to press the power button until the computer shut off. Then reboot. This happened twice. The touchpad was hot, like something was overheating inside the laptop. This laptop was built by System76 and is some sort of generic Lenovo under the hood. No web site has ever crashed my computer before. I have Ubuntu, upgraded from version 20 to 22.04.1 LTS three weeks ago, and upgraded from DSL to fiber Internet two weeks ago. Maybe one of these is causing the problem. I'll try to also report it to the other components' producers.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1990030] Re: Webpage in Firefox crashes computer
There are only chromium files in /var/crash dated today, but this Firefox crash happened a few weeks ago, so no, nothing relevant in /var/crash. It could be a lot of things to do with recent upgrades, and the fact that I have a WiFi 6 router, but not a WiFi 6 wireless card or adaptor in my laptop. It hasn't happened again, but if it does, I will try to remember to post a comment in this bug. -- 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/1990030 Title: Webpage in Firefox crashes computer Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I could not reproduce this today, but the web page at https://celebratingsweets.com/big-chewy-ginger-molasses-cookies/ crashed my computer.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1990030] Re: Webpage in Firefox crashes computer
This is not necessarily a crash caused by firefox, it could be any component really. Can you check in /var/crash whether there are .crash files with a timestamp that corresponds to when the problem happened? ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- 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/1990030 Title: Webpage in Firefox crashes computer Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I could not reproduce this today, but the web page at https://celebratingsweets.com/big-chewy-ginger-molasses-cookies/ crashed my computer.
