[Bug 1315886] Re: Ubuntu Freezes after Firefox Crash

 

Cosmin Mutu, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg 1315886

Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes
button for attaching additional debugging information. As well, please
note given that the information from the prior release is already
available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would
not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

  Sorry, first time reporting bugs to Ubuntu, so no idea where to
  register this bug and also if you guys needed any other info. Please
  let me know if you need further info.

  I clicked "This bug is a security vulnerability" as I don`t think that
  it is normal for the OS to be affected by a running application (FF).
  It feels like a DENIAL OF SERVICE to me.
