I took out one of the IP addresses in /etc/resolv.conf and Firefox behaves much better but it will just get repopulated with the same addresses on the next boot, is that right? I found these directions for diabling ipv6. Does this look about right?
I made 2 changes before I rebooted, so I can't be certain which one (or both?) actually had the effect of disabling ipv6 on boot. 1. vi /etc/sysctl.conf - add net.ipv6.conf.eth1.autoconf = 0 net.ipv6.conf.eth0.autoconf = 0 net.ipv6.conf.default.autoconf = 0 net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf = 0 net.ipv6.conf.lo.autoconf = 0 2. vi /etc/modprobe.d/aliases - changed #alias net-pf-10 ipv6 #to alias net-pf-10 off # and added alias ipv6 off then ran update-modules then reboot.
