Yep, that seems to be the problem. Same happened to me, I updated whilst using firefox. I just went into system monitor, kiled firefox and opened a new window.

The problem went away after rebooting the system. So spudly's suspicion of processes hanging around looks like it might be it. Fix the upgrade script maybe? -- Firefox total blank screen after apt-get upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299227 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 299227] Re: Firefox total blank screen after apt-get upgrade
solved the problem on my box. There was an instance of the firefox process that wasn't closing properly or something because running 'killall firefox' in the terminal solved the problem. This probably has something to do with the fact that it was upgraded while firefox was running. :) -- Firefox total blank screen after apt-get upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299227 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've tried with a fresh profile, no success. safe-mode won't work either. -- Firefox total blank screen after apt-get upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299227 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Try with an empty profile, as themes, extensions and some preferences could cause trouble after upgrading to a new version of firefox. Rename your ~/.mozilla folder to ~/.mozilla.bak and start firefox. It should create a freh profile directory, if a corrupt profile was tha cause, it should be working fine now. -- Firefox total blank screen after apt-get upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299227 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
