hi well, since it said no debugging symbols found, i figured, whats the point? but well, ok, so after today's upgrade to 3.0.5, i decided to give it a go, here's what happened:

Cannot access memory at address 0xfe8c838f that segfault stopped things even before any firefox windows showed. when i ran firefox normally, without gdb, it started up fine... so, i enabled apport, as you suggested, and when i get around to restarting, will do so, and then hopefully will be able to report the detailed info on the crash, if it persists after the 3.0.5 upgrade. -- firefox crashes randomly and silently https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/308297 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
