[Bug 597429] [NEW] X freeze while scrolling certain page in firefox

 

Public bug reported:

If i load a certain page on www.ard.de in firefox and use the scroll
wheel of the mouse to scroll the page, then its very likely that X
freezes. I am able to reproduce this within about 2 minutes.

When X freezes, its process takes 100% of the cpu. Not just firefox does
not respond. The whole desktop (gnome) does not react. But i can still
move the mouse pointer.

So i logged in from another machine, started gdb and attached it to the
X process to gain some informations. Please find them attached (gdb
log).

Please let me know if you need more information.
