[Bug 963736] Re: thunderbird and firefox freeze at random : must be killed and restarted

 

Am getting something similar to this bug but I am on trusty and gtk2
-engines-oxygen is not installed. Am using awesomevm as a window manager
and here are the gtk-engines installed :

# dpkg -l gtk2-engines*

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Thunderbird freezes at random. I must kill it then reload it.
  Sometimes the freeze happens when sending a mail. I had no problem in 11.10.

  It happens several times a day. The only pattern that I can currently
  see is that the freeze happens frequently when thunderbird is using
  the network.

  [Test Case]
  * Install update
  * Run Firefox/Thunderbird for a day
  * Make sure it does not freeze

  [Regression Potential]
  * Minimal
  * Upstream release for gtk2-engines-oxygen is only a bug fix release

  $ lsb_release -rd
