Title:
  Firefox 29 fails (system hang) under Linux 3.11.0-24-generic, works
  under 3.11.0-20-generic

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Note: attached system information captured under Linux 3.11.0-20-generic.
  The actual hang occurs under Linux 3.11.0-24-generic.

  I am assuming the actual bug has to do with this particular combination of 
Kernal and Firefox.
  tagged it as kernal, as the same version of firefox works under previous 
kernal

  When the SYSTEM hangs, you lose all control. Only a power-switch reboot will 
recover.
  Hang NEVER occurs under Linux 3.11.0-20-generic and will ALWAYS hang when 
firefox is started under Linux 3.11.0-24-generic

  No differences after reinstalling the -24 system, and/or firefox using
  Synaptic Package Manager.

  Can assist in debugging, but am not an "expert" in linux.

  My system uses an NVIDIA GeForce 8600GTS video card.
     ubuntu-drivers-common 1:0.2.91.4
     xserver-xorg-video-nouveau  1:1.0.10-1ubuntu2

  if I boot the system under the recently distributed 3.11.0-24-generic
  and then start Firefox 29, (also recently distributed)
  my system will lockup, and I will have to use the power button to
  reboot.

  if I boot the 3.11.0-20-generic kernal, then there is no problem.
  hints anyone?
