[Bug 922458] [NEW] Firefox crashes X server when viewing large image

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

I was trying to view this image in Firefox: http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/618486main_earth_full.jpg
It is quite large (8000x8000 px). When the image was loaded to about 50%, my X server suddenly crashed, showing me the console for a second and then showing the login screen.

This happened again when I logged in and started Firefox, which tried to
load the image again. I didn't try more often or with similarly large
images. The smaller variants of this image (available at
http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegallery/image_feature_2159.html)
pose no problem.

I'm using Ubuntu 11.10. My graphics card is the internal one of an Intel
Sandy Bridge CPU (GT1). Just before this I installed all available
updates.
