On further testing, I see either additional or changed behavior. Unfortunately, during the period when I logged this bug, and what I see now, I installed/uninstalled a number of packages, so my test case may no longer be valid on this machine.
In any case, here's what I'm now seeing: Does: 1) Start Firefox application (firefox 2.0.0.8 2nobinonly-0ubuntu1) 2) Open Appearance Preferences dialog 3) Click unselected item in Themes tab 4) Observe Firefox CPU utilization increase; application is hung 5) Firefox CPU utilization continues for between 3 - 10 seconds 6) Firefox then redraws (refresh) and the application is once again functional (no "force quit" dialog is issued) Should: 1) User should change appearances without Firefox "hesitation" Again, since my machine has undergone some changes since I first logged this bug, I'd be inclined to call this "not repro" and close it out. However, in my current configuration, I still DO see some unusual behavior, though it most certainly is not an application crash. It appears now to be more likely a GTK issue with updating window styles, of which perhaps Firefox just happens to take some time/horsepower updating. -- Firefox crash when Appearance Preferences/Theme used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157101 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
