Hi,
Now after the recent build/install world on amd64 my firefox freezes often.
When firefox is up this is the process
dfly-vmsrv# ps aux|grep firefox
sgeorge 862 0.0 5.5 262108 163944 v0 SL 5:42PM 0:40.03
/usr/pkg/lib/xulrunner/xulrunner-bin
/usr/pkg/lib/firefox/application.ini
root 884 0.0 0.0 444 300 0 RLM+ 5:51PM 0:00.00 grep firefox
dfly-vmsrv#
When the firefox freezes i either destroy the window or kill the above process
But when i start firefox again i get this error.
"Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new
window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart
your system."
There is no process corresponding to firefox in ps aux when this happens.
I have to restart my system once in 40-60 minutes to use firefox :-(
Kernel is 2.7-DEVELOPMENT DragonFly v2.7.3.1245.gb5ef8-DEVELOPMENT #0:
