mozilla firefox crashes when I play a game in Pogo.com

Asked by scslomberg

When I pull up Firefox and go to Pogo.com to play a game, after about 10 minutes it freezes/crashes. I am using Kubuntu 10.04 32 bit. My Java version is up to date and I use the clear history when necessary.

Does it happen with other browsers?
have you tried updating your browser using the mozilla ppa?

version.

Try:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade

Sounds like a bug with (crappy) firefox then (I hate firefox). You should log a bug if the newer version is bad.

Were you able to follow actionparsnip's advice? Did it help? Are you still experiencing this problem?

You could also consider logging a bug if the newer version is good, because the older version is still supported and the bug might be fixed with an SRU (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates).

If you report this as a bug, then you should first make sure to read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs carefully. Then, to report the bug, since this is a crash, you should *not* initiate the report with the "Create bug report" or "Report a bug" links on Launchpad, nor should you do it by manually invoking ubuntu-bug. Instead, you should do it by enabling Apport crash reporting (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport#How_to_enable_apport). Then trigger the bug and you will be given the opportunity to report it with a substantial amount of important technical information (including but not limited to a stack trace) attached automatically. Make sure your description of the bug is complete and self-contained, so that it is not necessary for Ubuntu developers to refer to this question page. Nonetheless, you should link it to this question using "Link existing bug" on this question page (though you can only do that if you choose to make the bug public, so if you choose to keep it private out of information disclosure concerns, then don't worry about not linking it here -- just let us know here that you filed a bug, and let us know the bug number so that if/when it becomes public, we can access it).
