Has anyone else experienced this? I am running Parcellite in daemon mode, and it's working fine for all applications except Firefox. When it's closed, whatever was copied from it can no longer be pasted by Ctrl-V, but middle click still works (?!). Any ideas what might be causing this? Does it happen for you too?
View 3 RepliesI'd like a working clipboard manager/app. I have tried 2,but neither work:
Parcellite:
Runs but no window appears. ie appears in ps.
Glipper:
Installs but can't get on menu.
I'm using Parcellite right now since whenever I copy something from Firefox and close it before pasting, whatever I copied is gone. Parcellite fixes this, but I don't want it to be on my tray all the time. How can I hide it?

Also in that corner was the program Parcellite that I used all the time. I accidentally deleted them both and now cannot get them back. I can't even start Parcellite from the menu and when i try to start it from the terminal this is what I get:

I've tried removing parcellite by uninstalling it, then reinstalling it and i still get the same thing. I even uninstalled it, then rebooted, then installed it again and still nothing. What the heck did i do??? any clues?
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat 64-bit on my desktop with a wired internet connection (with no firewall). For the past 2 days, I have observed that1. Firefox randomly throws up errors like "Problem loading page" whenever I click on a hyperlink. When I click on Reload, the page loads up just fine. This has been happening a lot recently..and I do not remember updating anything consciously. By the way, ipv6 is disabled in Firefox.2. The network stops working all of a sudden (usually indicated by the Firefox error). The Autho Eth0 indication is active, but I am unable to connect to any external machine.
3. Needless to say, this error is manifesting itself in apt-get as well. I get "something wicked happened" errors all the time, and am unable to download or install anything.That this is not a problem with the ISP is obvious because I also have Windows (from which I'm typing this, ironically), which is able to access the internet.Is this a bug in Ubuntu 10.10?
Im running 10.04 and firefox is not loading up on two of my computers now.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe navigation buttons in firefox are not working and I can not access File, Edit, View, and History pull down menus. This just started today i think. I have 3.5.pre8 and 3.7 installed. both are affected.
Edit: Actually it is a problem with all apps when window is maximized. I cannot access the first 3 or 4 pull down menus or buttons on the tool bar unless the window is not maximized. This happens with konqueror, firefox and Banshee. Have not tested other apps yet.
Edit2: Upper left corner of desktop is also affected. The icons in this part of the screen are not accessible. seems that anything in that region of the screen is dead. just switched from compiz window manager to metacity and there is a black square in the upper left corner of my screen about 2.5"x 2.5".
i can't navigate through the tabs in firefox with my mouse, i cant use the address bar to navigate anywhere by key or click, my google search toolbar is acting the same way. i just updated everything after putting in the flashplugin-installer code.. i'm clueless since i know zilch about this system and im still stumbling through baby steps.

View 5 Replies View RelatedTwo 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 !
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using a 64-bit machine Ubuntu 9.10, and Firefox 3.5.9 for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0 (Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100402 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.9) This problem has actually been going on since I started using Ubuntu. Firefox works for most things, but certain sites, many of them are ones you have to log into, but many other sites I log into work just fine. The first one which did not work was bigcharts.com. No login necessary. When I try to get a chart (stock) the page reloads with an error that I have to enter a symbol. On some sites I put in my username and password and the page just seems to reset. These sites work fine with forefox 3.5.9 on Windows Vista, and work with epiphany on Ububtu.

I can't get Firefox to load up. I know what the problem is by reading this post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=828648
But I can't get it to go back to working by using the solution provided. I'm using Lucid Lynix by the way.
I have used the hackbar addin in Firefox for a long time in Windows, but it doesn't seem to operate in Ubuntu 64bit. I honestly can't remember if it was working and stopped, or if it never worked at all. So mostly posting to see if others here have it working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the addin, but no luck. Just left a blurb on the developer's tiny forum.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo I've installed the flashplugin-nonfree package but for some reason flash refuses to work under Firefox. The libflashplayer.so is in the right folder and flash actually works under Chromium browser - just not Firefox.
I setup the system from a 10.04 32bit minimal CD could it just be a pakage I am missing that is causing flash not to work under Firefox? I've tried Firefox 3.6.x and 4.0 beta and flash fails in both.
I'm confused with Adobe Flash. I'm using 32-bit Ubuntu 10.10. Flash was working for me in Google Chrome 8.0.552.224 but not with Firefox 3.6.13. So, I tried to troubleshoot it myself. I searched for how to uninstall Flash and I found a link to a thread from 2008, [URL]. I quickly ran the code posted. And, of course, only after running the code did I bother to read the date the post was posted which was 2008. I did:
Code:
sudo apt-get remove -y --purge flashplugin-nonfree gnash gnash-common mozilla-plugin-gnash swfdec-mozilla libflashsupport
sudo rm -f /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/*flash*
sudo rm -f ~/.mozilla/plugins/*flash*
sudo rm -f /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/*flash*
sudo rm -f /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/*flash*
Then I ran
Code:
sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin
Then Shockwave Flash 10.1 r102 was working for ..... in Firefox. And was still working in Google Chrome. Is there a site that has explicit steps for removing Flash from 10.10? And I had thought that the file named "libflashplayer.so" always had to be located in Firefox's directory named, /home/user/.mozilla/plugins/ for it to work in Firefox. But, now the only place that file exists is:
Code:
# find / -name "libflashplayer.so"
/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
So, I guess I was wrong with thinking that the file named "libflashplayer.so" always had to be located in Firefox's directory named, "/home/user/.mozilla/plugins/". I have no idea where it's suppose to go for Google Chrome 8.0.552.224. How does Chrome find it? So, in the end, Flash is working for me in both browsers and I have no idea why.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64bit and since Ubuntu 8.10 I've had firefox.bin working on the background and taking over 60% of CPU. This happens in the first 1/2 hour after booting, afterwards it runs normal.

I am running 10.04, with Compiz.
This is a weird problem I am facing right now. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid) Firefox 3.6.3. The tab key, the arrow keys and the page down / up keys dont work anymore. They're working fine in any other application, like Chrome.
The keys were fine till yesterday and suddenly they have stopped responding.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI downloaded the 10.10 desktop version. Everything seems to work fine except Firefox. Sure, I can get on, but getting out is something of a chore. Half the time the page freezes and won't allow me to try anything else.
I tried: Clicking on the red "X" = nothing
Right-clicking on the page and selecting "Back" = nothing
Right-clicking on the task bar and selecting "Close" = nothing
Restarting the computer = nothing
The only way to get out when that happens, is to hold down the "Power" button. I know it's not good for the computer, but being held hostage in Firefox is not good for my patience. Even that is a crap-shoot. Sometimes it boots back up fine, only to resume what happened before the power went out when I log back into Firefox. Sometimes it won't let me out until I scan back to the main page by using the arrows one page at a time. This kind of thing never happened when I had the 9.04.
