Firefox 141 startup crash
Hi, my Machine updated from 140.0.4 to 141.0 since then I cannot start up Firefox anymore. On startup after a short pause the Crash Reporter shows up - interestingly the Crash Reporter may enter a endless loop and opens up multiple times. While that the CPU load is at 100%. I tried
- `firefox --safe-mode`
- `firefox --ProfileManager`
as well, for those I get the same behavior. I tried downgrading to 140.0.4 - after that a profile dialog shows up which tells me that a new profile needs to be created due to a downgrade. After that Firefox comes up fine with the new vanilla profile. IF Firefox updates to 141.0 (in background) the next startup with the vanilla profile doesn't work gain. Which brings me back to the initial problem.
Workaround for now:
- download 140.0.4
- create a fresh profile
- immediately disable auto update
- live with the empty profile
My environment:
- Linux Debian 12 on x86_64
- KDE Plasma
- nvidia drivers installed
- I am using Firefox from `https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases`

Hi, can confirm that - I did a test using a machine using a Intel graphics card - not reproducible there. I now took the chance and replaced my Nvidia card with an Intel ARC and Firefox comes up as expected.
Kernel used was 6.7 (bpo) with Nvidia driver 550.54 .

Hi,
If you're experiencing Firefox crashes after updating to version 141.0 on Debian 12 with KDE Plasma, here are some steps you can try:
- Update System Packages: Ensure your system is fully updated:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
- Install Missing Dependencies: Firefox might be missing some dependencies. Install them using:
sudo apt install libdbus-glib-1-2 libxt6
- Check NVIDIA Driver Issues: Some users have reported crashes related to NVIDIA drivers. Ensure you have the latest drivers installed:
sudo apt install nvidia-driver
- Check System Logs: Examine system logs for any related errors:
journalctl -xe | grep firefox
If the issue persists after trying these steps, please provide additional details about your system configuration, such as your CPU model, RAM size, and any active extensions. This information can help in diagnosing the issue more accurately.
