Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
I have a brand new Dell Inspiron 530n with Ubuntu 8.1 installed and fully patched. I'm running 3.0.6+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.1 and have found it crashes a lot. I thought I had reduced it to be a problem with Flash, and so had installed the FlashBlock addon. This solved some problems, but it still crashes. I've found today it will crash consistently when loading http://www.vonage.com. It loads most of the page, then the browser window closes. I ran an strace this morning while loading that page. The last lines are read(3, 0x88247d4, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll( <unfinished ...> +++ killed by SIGABRT +++ This is referenced above by open("/etc/passwd", O_RDONLY|0x80000 /* O_??? */) = 3 Probably half the web sites I use crash in this manner. Any help would be most appreciated.
