And yes, even Chrome, it is crashing :) One opened tab is ok. Two tabs say Gmail and Facebook = crash. As for Firefox, I noticed a much better performance and less crashing. When idle, it is even lighter than Midori. The Firefox Team has done a great job to make it less resources hungry. For machines with more than 1GB RAM, not very sure because I don't use one at the moment. My main machines both with 4GB RAM and Core i5 so nothing will stop, lack or crash :D while my test subject is 512MB RAM Core Due @1.86GHz :) I haven't tested the 'un-official' PPA for latest version of Chromium (dev version) which I guess should be version 27 and as far as I have heard, no more crashes or perhaps less. After all, this is a test machine not for daily usage. After all, one can install his/her favorite browser with few steps away :D Thank you! -- *Best Regards, amjjawad* *https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad/* Lubuntu One Stop Thread <http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1844755>| My Launchpad <https://launchpad.net/%7Eamjjawad> | My Ubuntu Forum Profile<http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=941822> **
