Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
Hi all,
My firefox has just crashed in the file manager area while trying to
select a folder to save a file from the web.
Steps to reproduce the error:
1. Select a file (in my case it was a jpg, but the file type makes no
difference)
2. Choose "save image as..."
- 3. Select "Browser for other folders
- 4. Select the Desktop button
+ 3. Select "Browse for other folders"
+ 4. Select the Desktop button
5. Press the backspace key to move to lower directories, The fault comes when
instead of pressing it once to lower a directory each time, you keep it pressed
for a while.
6. FF always crashes.
- I can reproduce it always even in "safe mode". I've created a new fresh
- user and used the flag -safe-mode
+ I can reproduce it always even in "safe mode" in several PCs with ubuntu
+ installed. I've created a new fresh user and used the flag -safe-mode
