Since the attached apport system info was from the Linux 3.11.0-20-generic boot (trusty amd64 apport-bug) how do I provide information on the 3.11.0-24-generic boot? The momment I try to start firefox, the system will hang!
Thanks... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1320428 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?
