I am still having issues with Firefox freezing and no cursor.  I have to
reboot several times a day to get a cursor.  I was not able to file a
help report while itwas happening because there was no cursor.

Title:
  Firefox continuously freezing, no cursor, links not opening, etc.

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  What on earth is going on?  All upgrades past 10.10 have been nothing
  but problems.

  Firefox continuously freezes.  I am sometimes unable to get a cursor
  and I have tried to report this problem several times, but when I get
  to this page I am not able to get a cursor to type in the problem.  I
  have to reboot several times a day just to get my work done.
  Sometimes when I click on links they won't open and at times the
  computer just seems to go haywire.  My processor makes so much noise
  when it is opening files and programs that I think it's going to
  crash.

  Can you please fix this or at least refer me to another operating
  system that works more efficiently.
