I am using F12 for a while now and my laptop has been freeze up from last update. So, I decide to do a fresh install with F12 using F12 net install method.I got it running but comes up with all sort of SELinux AVC denial waring and my firefox does not work and firefox pop up with waring as follow:Quote:Could not initializeapplication's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features.Could some one tell me how to fix this problem?he firfox version is 3.5.15-1I ave F12 on T23 LaptopThe kernel is 2.6.32.26-175.fc12.i686.PA1Gb memory with PIII mobile

So, I've done a fresh install of F13 on my laptop and the very first thing I chose to add was Adobe Flash (installed with help of Autoten). Flash plugin in Firefox seems to be working alright, but make a right-click on any Flash content on a web page - and browser will freeze.
I'm even puzzled about what can be done to diagnose the problem. Running Firefox from a terminal emulator doesn't give any useful feedback on this situation.
some input on what can be done to clear things up.
P.S. I'm running a 32 bit version OS.

Two days ago I did a regular update and since then I can't start Firefox. When I start it nothing happens and when I start it again I get the following message "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process , or restart you computer". I did them both, closing the process and rebooting but I got the same problem again. When I log off I get the following message in the file below. I almost forgot I'm using UBUNTU 9.10 !

I'm running Opensuse 3 on an EEE PC, and so far had no problems. I brought it to another house today and now Firefox seems to be unable to connect to the network.. Network is working however, as Skype is running fine. Online update won't work either.

On Lucid after yesterday's upgrade to Firefox 3.6.14, Java isn't working properly.On a website that I often use, the navigation buttons are appearing erratically - either not at all (just white spaces) or some are present but others are not. They work perfectly with Chrome.I have sun-java6-jre, sun-java-bin and sun-java6-plugin installed, and the latter is enabled in Firefox.

Firefox 3.6 "Namoroka" stopped working after a recent update. Clicking on my panel launcher or the launcher in the applications menu does nothing. I even tried starting Firefox from the terminal and got an error message: "(firefox-bin:3592): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times", whatever that means.I would be willing to rip out Firefox and start all over again but I don't know how to remove the 3.6 version. I couldn't find a method in the Software Center for doing that graphically.

Firefox 4 freeze in openSUSE-11.4? Mine freezes randomly, it seems, on opening links in new tabs. I don't think it's Flash as it happens on any web site, even without flash (e.g. like this forum). I've updated to the latest version from the Mozilla repo but it still freezes. The only option is to kill it and restart it. So I use Chromium at the moment. But I prefer Firefox.
PS I don't have any Firefox 4 problems in WinXP at work. And I think I haven't yet had a freeze on my Intel laptop or Atom netbook (maybe I haven't used them long enough), looks like it may be something to do with 64-bits (AMD)? But I may be wrong.

Firefox and flash have just been automatically updated to 3.6.17-0.2.1 & 10.3.181.14-0.2.1. Flash no longer seems to work very well and right clicking on flash will cause firefox to freeze. These problems do not happen with Opera.

I am running Ubuntu 9.10 on my desktop computer which runs a Core 2 Duo at 3.2ghz and I have 2 gig of RAM. I have installed all the latest Ubuntu updates.
In Firefox, I have about 70 bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar. Obviously the bar can't show 70 so most of them are in the dropdown section of the bar on the right. When I add a new bookmark, Firefox adds it to the end of the dropdown. Sometimes I want them to be closer to the top so I scroll down, click and drag it up closer to the top. In Firefox under Windows this works fine. However in Firefox under Ubuntu, as soon as I start to drag it up Firefox turns gray and Ubuntu totally locks up. Everything in Ubuntu freezes. The main bar at the top stays color, only Firefox turns gray. I tried clicking around but it's frozen. I tried pressing Esc, ctrl-alt-delete, and a number of other keys but noting will unfreeze Ubuntu. I have to physically turn off my computer and reboot.

First things first:
Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit, 2 gigs ram, Firefox 3.6.10
I looked around here and only found some, "it could be this or that" type answers from a year or 2 ago, so here's my question.
Does anyone have a definite answer yet, as to why firefox randomly freezes up/turns gray and doesn't respond? It seems to be more like after I've had it open for a good length of time. And seemingly when I use the auto scroll.

I've noticed that FireFox is still at 3.0.11 on my Fedora 10 install despite multiple auto-updates. Will this not update FireFox to 3.5 auto-magically, or do I need to do it manually myself?

I've been having trouble lately with firefox freezing. For awhile I couldn't figure out what was causing it as it seemed random. But I think I narrowed down the problem to the mplayer plugin. Whenever I go to a site that has streaming video, the mplayer plugin would start reading the stream, but then display "stopped". Now sometimes when it does this firefox would freeze, but sometimes it wouldn't freeze till I start mousing over my bookmark tabs, then it would freeze my entire desktop. I can move my mouse but not much else. I can do a ctrl-alt-backspace to reload the xserver. Has anyone else noticed this? Also, can some help me troubleshoot this. I've removed and then re-installed firefox and the myplayer plugin; deleted my .mozilla directory; changed profiles. Is there anything else I can do?
Here are the package details:
Code:
Repository: @System
Name: MozillaFirefox
Version: 3.6.15-0.2.2
Arch: x86_64
[code]....

I'm having trouble with Firefox hanging. It takes at least two attempts to launch, having to force the initial blank page to quit. Often it will freeze my desktop when loading new pages, and I have to force quit. I've upgraded to 3.6.17 but no difference. The Mozilla help page suggests disabling add-ons to find the problem, but to no avail. Chrome works OK but I'd rather use Firefox.

Fedora 11, 32-bit, updated daily manually via yum (console). Today got the Firefox update to 3.5.4. After restarting Firefox, the fist page reads: "You should update Adobe Flash Player right now." The link leads to Adobe site, which offers me Flash Player version 10.0.32.18. All is fine so far, excluding the fact that I already have this player:
[root@pc ~]# rpm -qa | grep flash
flash-plugin-10.0.32.18-release.i386
Just for the record, on "aboutlugins" page Firefox confirms I do have the correct player version:
Shockwave Flash
File name: libflashplayer.so
Shockwave Flash 10.0 r32
Does it mean Firefox does not detect correctly the Flash plugin version? Or am I missing something?

I have been having a freaky experience where Firefox appears to freeze up and brings down the terminal and any process viewer with it. For example, I can open a gnome-terminal or xterm window, but the moment I press a key, that window freezes up as well and must be force-quitted with the Force Quit panel applet. In addition, the System Monitor applet I have on my top panel freezes. It's really weird.
I began having this problem around a month or two ago. I thought it was something to do with something I installed, so a week or so ago I did a clean install, backing up my documents, Firefox profile, and GNOME settings from the old installation but wiping everything else (I'd already ruled out the Firefox profile by renaming the folder and creating a new one from the profile manager). Yet the problem persists.
I'd be happy to post any output, but as bash (including Ctrl+Alt+F1 command line) freezes as well, it's a little hard to treat the problem when it happens. One more thing: I am on a university campus which uses 802.1x encryption on both wired and wireless connections; is it possible that that is causing the crashes?

Linux and ubuntu. second my computer is single os with ubuntu 9.10. the problem i have is trying to watch any thing streaming media. Movies, music, like from ....., divx, or even megavideo which seems to work best right now.
What happens is that the video or firefox it self seems to freeze up every 10 minutes or so.
It may be that i need to increase the buffer memory size but i do not know how to.
I have updated my computer and firefox and installed and updated any possible add-ons that would fix the problem.
What im asking for is either a patch or add-on that will help this problem or how to run windows inside of ubuntu. (Im am tired of windows and ubunu has made my computer work so much faster, when i am sure that i know how to make this computer stable with what i need for internet use i will apply it to my other computer.)

I have a similar problem with the recent update of lucid.When I open the GUI of the update manager or Synaptic, they freeze when I try to install something.1) Synaptic freezes from the beginning2) Update manager freezes when I try to install something3) Update manager and installation correctly work from the command line. (If I did not open update or synaptic before,if I did, I need to remove the lock).

Running Ubuntu 10.4 32bit (only) on my system with ati graphics card. I just ran a software update, and I believe a new kernel was installed. When I rebooted, I saw the "Ubuntu" loading screen, but then the system froze up and the screen went completely blank. Thinking it was a graphics issue, I tried to press escape to get into the grub bootloader. However, when I pressed escape at the proper time, the system just rebooted.
Thinking that grub was broken, I used a live cd to purge grub from my system and re-install it. When I rebooted, I got the same initial problem: I get the "Ubuntu" loading screen, but then the screen goes black and the system appears to be frozen. Again, if I press escape to try the grub bootloader, the system just reboots.
