@Tpugliese - that's an unreliable workaround at best, and at worst it stops us from finding what's causing this. Do you know why this works? -- firefox: crashes on viideo stream with pulse.c:200: pulse_new: Assertion `p-context' failed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371147 You received this

I would say it is pretty reliable. Deleting the ~/.pulse directory fixed the problem on two systems for me. Make sure firefox is closed when deleting the files and it will clear up the crash. I have no idea why it works, nor do I particularly care. I passed along the workaround for anyone

I'm quite surprised this works... but more concerned that your workaround might stop something else working. Anyone who reads the workaround has been warned! -- firefox: crashes on viideo stream with pulse.c:200: pulse_new: Assertion `p-context' failed. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371147

The lines in question that are the problem are: if ((m-ptr = mmap(NULL, m-size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, (off_t) 0)) == MAP_FAILED) { pa_log(mmap() failed: %s, pa_cstrerror(errno)); goto fail; } It should be easy enough to

You can get around this by using the pulse server. The error message suggests that the problem is in the shm module and the server doesn't use shared memory. So grep pulse kill edit /etc/default/pulseaudio - set SYSTEM_START=1 /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart -- firefox: crashes on viideo

I have the same problem, but when I mark pulse audio for removal, Synaptic Package Manager says it will also remove ubuntu-desktop. I don't think that would be a good idea. Any suggestions? On Mon, 2009-05-18 at 20:24 +, Bjarne H. Nielsen wrote: Uninstalling pulseaudio worked for me as

You can go ahead and remove ubuntu-desktop, it won't have any noticable affect. I have done it on two machines so far. Other packages may re-add ubuntu-desktop, which may re-add pulse, then you will just have to remove it again. Hasn't happened to me yet. -- firefox: crashes on viideo stream
