Public bug reported: I have 5 windows with lots of tabs, that are brought up each time FF loads. I looked at one or two tabs, deleted a tab or two, I think, then went and started checking my email at AOL. I looked at one msg., clicked on the up-arrow to look at the prev. msg., and nothing happened - thought I'd missed the button, and tried again - nothing. Tried down-arrow. Nothing. Tried clicking on other tabs - nothing. Tried other windows - sometimes the focus tab was running a routine that changed a logo picture - that kept going. If I minimized a window or -un-minimised it, I would see a string of increasingly smaller window title-bars descending the screen for the minimising visual effect (or the reverse), but no tab/window would display, nor was usable. I went into "htop" and noted the process# of the Firefox process with the longest run-time, and called ubuntu-bug with it. End of story. I'll now go back into htop and kill the process, and restart FF. Probably everything will be fine. I may kill off a few tabs, just to be neat, and give FF less to do, in case it might make some difference... Hope that the files ubuntu-bug pulls into this bug report are of use to someone, as this description probably isn't... -Scott
