[Bug 1501523] [NEW] The Ubuntu-enhanced version of Firefox crashes persistently

 

Public bug reported:

My system is Ubuntu 14.04.3 - 64bit on Thikpad T530. The Ubuntu-enhanced
last 2-3 versions of Firefox crash on it every couple of minutes
especially on graphics/video - extensive pages such as e.g. Facebook and
YouTube. The same versions of Firefox downloaded directly from Mozilla
work without a glitch. I did try to identify/eliminate eventual impact
of add-ons, plugins and bookmarks/history but crashes were not
influenced. I am not currently in position to hunt for further
diagnostic information - so I hope that this and the attached report
from apport helps.

Here are the details you request:

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Release:	14.04

$dpkg -l |grep firefox
ii  firefox                                                     41.0+build3-0ubuntu0.14.04.1                        amd64        Safe and easy web browser from Mozilla
