I don't know if this helps, but I have a similar problem, except with mine the cursor won't even move. I had this problem with Firefox 3 so I downgraded to 2. Everything worked fine until recently. I changed my video card from a Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 to an ATI Radeon 9600. The problem didn't come back until a couple days later. It seems to happen on pages with some sort of flash. I've never had a flash video run very well, but I've heard that it's because there's no good flash player for Ubuntu yet. Also, it doesn't happen all the time on the same pages. But when it happens, it just stops. There is no recovery for it except turning the computer off and on. Another thing I should add is that when it used to happen, and the computer did its drive check from unclean shutdown, sometimes there would be an xserver problem. It would always make its way through it (I forgot the exact errors and what I had to do to fix it). I just thought of something else. I also uninstalled the drivers for the Nvidia card today. I haven't had the problem until today. Maybe it needed those for something even though the card is missing? That's all I have. I see the post above this says fix released, but there's nothing else on that. Where is the fix?
