[Bug 159594] Re: Crash to white screen of death (possibly Firefox?)

 

Having watched this a couple of weeks now, I don't think it is related
to Compiz. Actually, I do think it might be related to Firefox and
possibly some other interfering component.

I switched to Chromium quite soon after my comment above (#51) and
didn't experience any more WSOD crashes since then, even after re-
activating Compiz. This is somehow notable as the machine on which I was
experiencing the crashes is a 'production' system being used for
software development more than ten hours a day, and actually I only
remember the system crashing when I was using Firefox; in some, if not
all (but I am not sure about this) cases right after Firefox gained
focus and I started mouse movement. This would also partially match
assumptions in comment #21 and might point to some interference between
Firefox, focus handling and mouse movement.
