[Bug 1363595] [NEW] Firefox 31 seems to shake randomly on some web page

 

Public bug reported:

Hello I have two issues I think are related. sometimes Firefox freeze on
one tab when I click on a Firefox/thunderbird link or sometimes when I
look a a youtube video, it is random. When it freeze I can click on
another tab and have the correct title for it but the conten stay frozen
on the same tab. Sometimes it does not freeze but the web content shakes
itself and stop shaking when I open a new tab. I have tried safe mode :
same issue. I have created a new profile : same issue. Thanks

- I use Firefox 31
- I am on Ubuntu 14.04.01 32 bits
- I've tried making a new profile : no change
- i've tried to use safe mode : no change
- i have not tried to desactivate hardware acceleration so far
- I use the following video driver : nvidia 343.13 for an Nvidia GT740, I had the same issues with the previous GPU an Nvidia 8400 GS
- The problem was non existant before I upgrade from 12.4 to 14.04 early july 2014
- I've reported the issue to Mozilla but no solutions given works : https://support.mozilla.org/fr/questions/1014778?esab=a&s=&r=1&as=s   even disabling the Firefow bookmarks toolbar
- I have not encountered this issue on Chromium but did randomly meet it on one or two Ubuntu apps like for example : the compiz configuration program
