** Description changed: Binary package hint: firefox-2 I am using this version of firefox on Gutsy: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080207 Ubuntu/7.10 (gutsy) Firefox/2.0.0.12 Sun JAva 6 Web start is installed and up-to-date Most applets work fine, but when I open some sites, ( like this one: http://fergusmurray.members.beeb.net/Trochor.htm) the applet seems to start working, but then freezes. The mouse pointer moves, but clicking does not work. No keyboard commands work. I have to press the power button to log out, and the system workes fine after log in. I tested this on several users (on one computer) with the same result. I have a dual boot machine and the problem did not arise in Vista. What I would have liked to happen is that ubuntu gave me a possibility to interrupt the :wild: applet, and/or a clue for how to solve the problem, and/or to see a message that I have to install a new Java version, etc etc. I hope this bug report will help to make Ubuntu even better! greetings, Mark + + (I have another display related issue, that I filed under Open Question + #28066)
