Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
I downloaded the new beta Firefox from Mozilla (firefox-3.0b1.tar.bz2)
and installed it to /opt. I ran it only a short while, less than a
minute, and it went crazy on me. My hard drive thrashed as it filled
about 500 megs of swap file before I could kill -15 it. I had to go to a
virtual terminal to get a command line to even use my computer it had
purged all my buffers making the GUI impossible to use. I was on maybe
three popular web pages. This doesn't seem like rational behaviour at
all.
Disclaimer: I realise this isn't specifically Ubuntu related as it's not
a supported package, but after googling briefly this was the only place
I could find to report my bug.
