Public bug reported: I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 on a dual-core Dell box at work. I'm using Thunderbird 2 (installed from the distribution on www.getthunderbird.com -- NOT the version distributed as part of Ubuntu).
On a fairly regular basis, Thunderbird 2 freezes up and has to be force- quit and restarted. I see this a lot when I come back from a break, exit the screen saver, and TB doesn't wake up. On occasion, TB freezes while I'm in the middle of doing something like composing a message. In each case, I try closing TB, but it doesn't respond and my only choice is to force-quit the application and restart TB. This has been happening for some time now, with a few different TB2 versions (currently 2.0.0.6). This problem NEVER happens on my home system (an Athlon 64 running 32-bit Ubuntu 7.04) -- with the same version of TB2 and the same extensions -- so the only thing I can imagine right now is that it might have something to do with some difference between my two machines -- possibly the fact that my work box is a dual-core and my home system is not. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Does it sound like a kernel problem, or something else? Any solutions? ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Thunderbird freezes on dual core system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155415 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
