Seems to be an issue in gtk+-2.16.5

Can you give the output of:

gedit ~/.xsession-errors

Thanks

Requested information is attached. Hope it helps, as the problem has been going on far too long. I can hardly use Firefox when it gets really bad.

Thanks

It may be a known bug to you, but that doesn't tell me how to solve the problem that neither firefox nor google chrome work properly. My system often comes to a complete standstill, playing videos can result in the browser hanging. . .

It might be resolvable, but I don't know very much about resolving such things. Since upgrading from ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 I have had far too many problems, mainly with firefox and google chrome. I have already sent you some system reports, but don't know if it was of any use. I keep opening my browsers in the terminal, but all that tells me I have already forwarded.

Please don't reply via mail to Launchpad mail notification but visit directly your question Launchpad site link, otherwise replies via email result in an endless thread incl. redundant quotations.

Did you actually read the bug report?

Does the issue remain when running flash sites?
Which and how did you install flash?

Does the issue remain when running Firefox in safe mode?
http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Firefox/Safe-Mode

> Since upgrading from ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10

Ok then, sounds you like taking risks.
Remove current flash app and install 'square' from Adobe.
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/

## Firefox should be closed during the procedures.

Can you help with this problem?
