The first ones from the remote siteĪnd later ones from adblock plus. If I let it sit long enough, as in 10 minutes, I start to get Maybe it's my local university network stopping it. Today, at this moment, it is working properly, but I have thought that it was OK before, only to have it hang the next time I access it from a different machine. The menu is the portable apps launcher menu by the way and it is It's a cross-platform issue for recent Firefox versions.I didn't think it should make any difference either, but it does! This is probably caused by Sqlite3 vacuuming delay. I don't mind using Chrome and Chromium (which are stable as rocks on my system), but I have some plug ins on Firefox I can't live without. All I can do is hit ctrl+alt+backspace and then log out.Īny help to diagnose this problem would be much appreciated.

I can still move the mouse, but I can't click on anything on the screen. I would try running firefox -debug from the command line, but the problem is once Firefox freezes, the desktop becomes completely inaccessible. Sometimes it happens when I haven't even gone to a web page yet, and I just click to open the bookmarks drop down from the menu. I thought the most likely culprit would be video, like when on YouTube, but that isn't it. I tried installing them back in one by one to see if any was more problematic than the rest, but no plug in emerged as a clear candidate. I have tried removing every single plug in I have, and the problem persisted.

Firefox freezes at random times, and when it does, it freezes the whole desktop with it. I am not definitely sure that this problem began since upgrading Ubuntu from 11.04, but that would be my guess.
