firefox freezes when viewing web pages
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:12:06 EST
Description of problem: Firefox freezes when loading various web pages. Other times it simply crashes. Good examples are newegg.com and bugzilla.redhat.com Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firefox-2.0.0.4-2.fc7 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just start viewing web pages 2. 3. Actual results: Either the application freezes, or exits. There doesn't seem to be much of any pattern except that it happens while loading pages Expected results: Web pages Additional info: I haven't had this problem with any of the releases for FC6. Also, this wasn't a problem with either test3 or test4 for FC7. There are no core files generated and no error messages printed to the console. I'm happy to help debug, but I don't know how to get some output.
I have no idea how to reproduce this bug -- obviously I am using firefox-2.0.0.4-2.fc7 everyday to go through our bugs, and I don't see anything special. So unless you are able to provide some more information about your configuration, anything which would made me to reproduce this bug here, I cannot help you. I am sorry.
