Firefox (and thunderbird, as well) seems to be suspending network activity when doing a vt-switch or user-switching or locking the screen. The effect of this is that ongoing downloads freeze and are resumed (sometimes fail) only after unlocking the screen.

Chromium, wget, etc., on the other hand appear unaffected and the download progresses during screen lock / vt-switch.

I do not remember when exactly this problem started, but could have been since a couple of years.

This problem also occurs when running the latest firefox (downloaded tarball from mozilla site) and a blank profile. So it could be some interaction between firefox and the window manager / xsession.

My setup is a desktop computer connected via ethernet cable running XFCE on Debian.

How do I go about diagnosing / fixing the issue?

Thank you. Raj Kiran

List all tabs

Please reintroduce a simple fix to remove the list all tabs button. Even the about:config method has been stopped. Many users want it customisable, Why not?

I'm taking nightly incremental backups of /home for example to my home storage server and, I guess, due to the databases Firefox uses for various storage, those can't be backed up by just copying them, if Firefox is running and has the database open.

What are the best practices, then, for ensuring all profile data, including these databases, is in a state where it can be backed up, while Firefox is running, in a way it can be restored to a fully functioning profile?

For example, with MySQL databases, you can dump the log before running the backup each night, which basically exports the SQL statements needed so you can skip backing up the actual binary database file (like ibdata1).  Does SQLite need something similar?  and is this the only special consideration that is needed, or are there other specialized types of data within our profile directories that can't be backed up by simply copying the data while Firefox is running?

Thanks
