hi Magi Su, that solution worked for me too, disabling by KDE4 desktop effects inside the DESKTOP menu in SYSTEM SETTINGS.
Somehow the effects behind that is interfering with the select and drag text in firefox and making many systems to hang(the X only). Can this bug be forwarded to the KDE4 desktop effects package bugs for them to check what is going on? -- firefox hangup while drag text in kde4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279654 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
