The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Hardy Heron. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the actively developed release.

I was having the same problem, and after doing some poking around on my system, I found it to be the wine/crossover office installed plugins that were installed. after removing them, firefox ran fine again. Hope that was insightful to others who are still experiencing the problem.

[Bug 172419] Re: firefox freezes and turns gray
I have been plagued with this bug as well. Firefox grayed out almost constantly when I opened new windows. At first I thought is was caused by Flash but disabling flash didn't solve it. After disabling all Firefox add-ons I noticed that Firefox worked without any flaws. I discovered that as long as I do NOT enable the Google bar add-on Firefox is stable again. The add-ons I have enabled are Flash, Webdeveloper, Addblock and Ubufox. I am not sure if this is actually a bug in the Google add-on or that there is some other bug floating around that just happens to be 'activated' on my system when I have enabled the Google bar add-on but I can reproduce the problem any time I enable the Google bar add-on. -- firefox freezes and turns gray https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172419 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 172419] Re: firefox freezes and turns gray
I have the same problem with FF 2.0.6, 2.0.9, 2.0.10 and Swiftox of the same revisions. The Firefox revisions were either installed or updated via synaptic. Swiftfox comes from their own repo which I enabled in synaptic. I do not have compiz or the google bar. The common denominator seems to be ubufox. It seems that everyone has it installed. I really thought that Flash might be the problem because yahoo.com will crash all of the above browsers instantly almost every time. -- firefox freezes and turns gray https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172419 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
