I think I've managed to find the cause of this: winbind! This was my nsswitch.conf file:
# /etc/nsswitch.conf # # Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality. # If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try: # `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file. passwd: compat winbind group: compat winbind shadow: compat hosts: files wins mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4 networks: files protocols: db files services: db files ethers: db files rpc: db files I removed all references to winbind from this file and did an 'aptitude remove winbind' Firefox is now stable, tried re-installing flash and re-activating my plugins, no crashes since! Someone else with a 64-bit machine should now try to re-create this if possible and then hopefully we will have a definitive way to reproduce this. Is it a firefox bug or a winbind bug? Should a seperate bug be raised as a winbind issue? -- firefox 3.0.3 crashes (no SIG) on most pages w images: 8.10beta AMD64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286119 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
