Hi all,
I have just installed SuSE 11.4 and over all its very nice. But the new FireFox seems to be locking the system up. About 3-4 times a day it hard locks the system, nothing works. So I have to unplug the power to restart the computer. I tried to downgrade back to FF4, but I can't get the system to accept it. Any ideas on what to do?
I really doubt the problem is Firefox5. That is a well tested browser, and pretty much everyone using an updated openSUSE 11.4 has FF5 now... so if there was some issue in FF5 that caused general lockups... there woudl be a lot of kerfuffle on the mailing list. :-) Have you poked in your messages log file after a restart? Is there something specific you are doing when the lockup happens? Flash 10? Flash 11? I've read some postings elsewhere (on the Adobe Labs forums) that under certain circumstances Flash 11 Beta has caused some lock ups in Linux.
