You load youtube and before it finishes the browser freezes. Then you type something into the search bar and the browser freezes again. You visit other websites with javascript interaction and the browser freezes. This happens also when you click the "star" symbol in the browser to bookmark or when you try to switch tabs.
But this is not a browser problem!! The behaviour changed with the "dist-upgrade" when new mesa and compiz packages arrived. I made sure there really was no code change of the browser. Additionally, the screen snapshotting tool crashed during the file save option when I had the spotify client launched. All in all totally unacceptable for updates to break my system like this. Sad that I can not just switch operating systems like people advise me .... ** Summary changed: - Second Life & Google Earth do not load for the intel "sandy bridge" gfx chip + mysterious application behaviour for the intel "sandy bridge" hardware -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1079801 Title: mysterious application behaviour for the intel "sandy bridge" hardware To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1079801/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
