<p>if what you say is true we can see it by typing "./firefox&amp;" in a terminal window as you did before and we did see so many errors!? Now that you say is working and you get none it means a memomy dimm is faulty and sometimes it works and sometimes is not or a problem in your power supply sometimes it dosent deliver much power supply and some time is not.
</p><p>i strongly sugges to download a source and do the make your self I gcan help you finish it and download the latest libs if you like.

<p>as you did see in the pictures i did upload i did download the source of 40.0b9i nightly in debian 8.1 and i did the compile for my system you can download the source from here:

</p><p>it's 41.0b1 version (newer from one i did compile) and do ./configure make me install with the first make you will try you see how many libs you missing and the number will be huge as you need to install the new libs alsa-lib , GTK+, NSS, yasm, PulseAudio-6.0, etc also the new gcc compiler 5.2. You must download and install all the packages from the root account it took me half day to complete all the new libs but the make started and as in the simulation i had nly 2 processors it took long time to finish but in the end it worth it because i was running it with no bugs and no errors.
</p><p>something else it will not work for you.

He forgot the &amp; in the end as i told him to do so that we know from were the errors are come from the system or the firefox are marked like this
(firefox:1784): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_clipboard_set_with_data: assertion 'targets&nbsp;!= NULL' failed
(firefox:1784): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_clipboard_set_with_data: assertion 'targets&nbsp;!= NULL' failed
errors are coming for the system this is not clear is better to download the source he likes and step by step we will install it until he will getting no errors so where is your problem?
PS with the &amp; in the end he is free to run su root from 1 terminal or stay in the account as a simple user nobody is using root account to play in the internet.
PS 2 i did upload and an image i did boot from the vmware player is simple machine with debian 8.1 and you see i have allow only the Mozilla site not Google analytics or anything else they using cookies to monitor what you visiting and this is not good. i'm login as a simple user and not as root.

<p>I think we are heading down the wrong track here.
Firefox 39 works fine for me including on Ubuntu. I even plugged in an earphone to confirm I get sound on this.
</p><p>The problem is not likely to be with Firefox 39 as installed by most people, but with something on your system. Rather than trying different builds and versions of Firefox your best options are
</p>
<ol><li> Confirm you have tried Firefox's safe mode.
</li><li> Refresh Firefox that will sort out any major profile issues or add-on problems. It possibly is not going to help if Firefox in safe mode and with no plugins enabled still has no sound, but is worth trying.
</li><li> If you have anything you need to keep, passwords bookmarks etc ensure you back up the Firefox profile. (We should not lose or damage this but belts and braces policy is best) The profile will be within <em>/home/jph-admin/.mozilla</em> Note the leading dot. This is a hidden folder
</li><li> Make sure you have another working browser. (You previously mentioned having Chrome on Ubuntu)
</li><li>Uninstall Firefox. You have the Canonical distro build installed. The Ubuntu software centre will have a remove option for Firefox.
</li><li> <strong>Check Firefox program files have been removed</strong>. For Canonical Firefox they will be in <em>/usr/lib/firefox</em>

<p>I do not know why your Firefox Mozilla Nightly is not working but it is much easier to reinstall the Distro version. When you say Nightly is not working are you indicating it has no sound, or that it does not function as a browser?

<p>I think we are heading down the wrong track here.
Firefox 39 works fine for me including on Ubuntu. I even plugged in an earphone to confirm I get sound on this.
</p><p>The problem is not likely to be with Firefox 39 as installed by most people, but with something on your system. Rather than trying different builds and versions of Firefox your best options are
</p>
<ol><li> Confirm you have tried Firefox's safe mode.
</li><li> Refresh Firefox that will sort out any major profile issues or add-on problems. It possibly is not going to help if Firefox in safe mode and with no plugins enabled still has no sound, but is worth trying.
</li><li> If you have anything you need to keep, passwords bookmarks etc ensure you back up the Firefox profile. (We should not lose or damage this but belts and braces policy is best) The profile will be within <em>/home/jph-admin/.mozilla</em> Note the leading dot. This is a hidden folder
</li><li> Make sure you have another working browser. (You previously mentioned having Chrome on Ubuntu)
</li><li>Uninstall Firefox. You have the Canonical distro build installed. The Ubuntu software centre will have a remove option for Firefox.
</li><li> <strong>Check Firefox program files have been removed</strong>. For Canonical Firefox they will be in <em>/usr/lib/firefox</em>
</li></ol>

<p>I do not know why your Firefox Mozilla Nightly is not working but it is much easier to reinstall the Distro version. When you say Nightly is not working are you indicating it has no sound, or that it does not function as a browser?

</p><p>He forgot the &amp; in the end as i told him to do so that we know from were the errors are come from the system or the firefox are marked like this

</p><p>errors are coming for the system this is not clear is better to download the source he likes and step by step we will install it until he will getting no errors so where is your problem?
</p><p>PS with the &amp; in the end he is free to run su root from 1 terminal or stay in the account as a simple user nobody is using root account to play in the internet.
</p><p>PS 2 i did upload and an image i did boot from the vmware player is simple machine with debian 8.1 and you see i have allow only the Mozilla site not Google analytics or anything else they using cookies to monitor what you visiting and this is not good. i'm login as a simple user and not as root.

it is not good to say
<em>"forget 39 is full of bugs download nightly version from here:"</em>
The Nightly version is unstable and updated frequently, often nightly, as the name suggests. It is not the policy of support.mozilla to tell ordinary users of Firefox to use Nightly instead of the Release. (Unless we have a very good reason, such as a bug fix that person needs urgently.)
If you have a particular issue or know of a particular bug in Firefox 39 that is causing you personally a problem I suggest you start your own question about that subject.
Yes you would be correct to say bug fixes are going to be made first of all in Nightly, but that is at a price of having to deal with all the other changes and updates, and the increased risk that data i.e. profile information will be lost. We may run multiple installs, multiple profiles and VMs but that is not what the ordinary user is doing. We do not even document fully the use of multiple profiles in our end user facing Knowledge Base.

<p>I dont mind using nightly builds if it solves my problem. so far its also not working. I am ready to share my desktop with teamviewer or something. Is it possible for you to help in that way?

I took many warnings as i tried to install it from my account and not root finally i forced to use the root compile in the end i did forced to install so many new libraries it took me almost half a day to set it up!? and too bad it was a virtual machine and not official build.
