I run wxmaxima on ubunbtu 20.04. The help menu option calls up firefox (v 101.0.1 (64 bit)) to find the local on disk html files. However this brings up the error message:

File not found

Firefox can’t find the file at /usr/share/maxima/5.45.1/doc/html/maxima_singlepage.html#g_t_0025.

But this is a valid path with user access permissions and the file maxima_singlepage.html exists and has user read permissions.

So what is firefox doing in looking for this file?

I have used the ms windows 10 version of wxmaxima and the firefox help works perfectly.

Hi all, I'm having a lot of problems with Firefox crashing pretty often. Sometimes once or twice a day.

I most often see crashes in the middle of a Webex video conference for work. But Firefox sometimes goes down in other situations that I see no pattern in.

This is Ubuntu 20.04, Firefox 102.0. Unfortunately, it's a complex environment to debug.

First, when firefox goes down, it rarely leaves a crash report behind. So I'm not getting any direct evidence as to what is happening. Second, I run with uBlock active and it is very difficult to function in the browser without long enough for the crash to happen. Third, I typically have several hundred tabs open. I have a lot of memory (64G) in my machine, and the machine doesn't act like it's swapping, so I don't think I'm running out of memory.

Any help getting to the bottom of what's going on is welcome.

UbuntuStudio 22.04 uses the Firefox Snap package by default. The latest automatic update does not display pages correctly in normal mode, but does work correctly on Safe Mode. Snap.io lists only the latest version of Firefox so I was unable to ask snap to revert to the previous release (prior to 5 Mar 24) and by the time I had tried to investigate the previous version was no longer cached. I did not see a way to force a fresh download of firefox from the latest channel on snap.io.

I tried the snap beta channel for v124, but that exhibited the same problems.

I tried adding a symbolic link to colors.css after seeing firefox complaining that it could not be found when started from the command line. That removed the error/warning message but did not clear the problem with normal mode.

I use the en-GB locale extension only. The technical details about my PC are as follows:

• Operating System: Ubuntu Studio 22.04
• KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.7
• KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
• Qt Version: 5.15.3
• Kernel Version: 6.5.0-25-lowlatency (64-bit)
• Graphics Platform: X11
• Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 7600 6-Core Processor
• Memory: 30.5 GiB of RAM
• Graphics Processor: RAPHAEL_MENDOCINO

I have now downloaded v123 and installed it in my local home directory, and that version is working well. I have removed the firefox channel via snap. It is likely to be a fault in the construction of the snap for v123 that was not present for v122 prior to 5 Mar 24.

Normally when I am not using Firefox My cursor is different (I have changed it in settings). Yet when I use Firefox It changes to Ubuntu's Default cursor. I don't know what type of information is required but I will happily provide them if you tell me about them.

A certain website (flixbus.com) is getting pinned on my firefox automatically. I have unpinned it several times but after few seconds, it gets pinned again. It's driving me nuts. I even cleared all my cookies but it didn't help.

In the Flatpak version of Firefox 103.0.2 the resize handles do not appear when you hover over any of the 4 edges of the firefox window unless you hold down the left mouse button, then they appear, but you have to get the mouse pointer just right before pressing the left mouse button. I notice on several forums that this has been like this for the last 2 months, are the team at Mozilla working on a fix, cheers

Hello Firefox team,

I was experiencing GUI issues using latest Firefox in ubuntu 18. Therefore following some instructions I applied the command: ``` mv .mozilla/firefox/ .mozilla/firefox.bak ``` After that I lost all the bookmarks, passwords and important information

How could I restore that please? I really need the help

Thanks

I follow the instruction in the kb of firefox to reset the download settings. But i keep not being able to download any file from any website. I currently have the version 107 in Ubuntu. This problem occur after the last upgrade. How to fix this? Thank you.

I upgraded my OS yesterday to Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS. That upgrade included the newest Firefox, 103.0.2. Most of the websites I go to load just fine but some; Facebook, Nextdoor, Inkscape chat, do not load. The page will start to load and then just hang. What to do, what to do.

Youtube live streams work fine on windows, but they don't work at all under Linux. Firefox is up to date on both my operating systems that I dual-boot. Getting an NS_BINDING_ABORTED error in the network console. I deleted my profile to be sure it wasn't due to any extensions or settings I've changed, and the problem remains. The Linux itself is also a fresh installation, and I had to download a tgz version and remove the snap to get the latest, because Ubuntu was stuck at 99.

Firefox will no longer display the main window. I get an icon in my taskbar but the window is nowhere to be found. I've tried the tricks of maximizing it and moving it but neither works. I have found that if I locate the xulstore.json file it will work but only for a short time. Next time I start Firefox I get an icon but no window. Very frustrating!

The sulstore.json file contains nothing that suspicious:

``` {"chrome://browser/content/browser.xhtml":{"main-window":{"screenX":"2129","screenY":"777","width":"1280","height":"1040","sizemode":"maximized"},"sidebar-box":{"sidebarcommand":"","style":""},"sidebar-title":{"value":""}}} ```

If I start Firefox and right-click the icon, select maximize it's as if it's maximized covering all my windows but yet invisible. I can see my other windows but I cannot interact with them.

Deleting the xulstore.json file often fixes this but it breaks again shortly. What's the deal???

Version 105 did not install and get my accounts and passwords from the previous version? This is not a good update! And your help does not HELP!

Why did the Ubuntu update delete all of Firefox (I will also ask on Ubuntu forum)?

We have an Ubuntu computer that opens Firefox in Kiosk mode automatically when the computer boots.

This computer is connected to a TV and is used as an informational dashboard. No user interaction is required, so no keyboard or mouse is connected.

Every so often, Firefox updates (among other updates) and the computer reboots overnight. When booting after a Firefox update, it shows a "thank you for loving firefox" message instead of the specified URL. The easiest fix is to hold the power button and manually reboot when this happens since there is no keyboard and it's quicker than logging in via SSH.

Is there a way to prevent this message from showing after updating? We want to keep the automatic updater enabled to keep it up to date, but this is not desirable behavior.

I want to add to the options listed when I right click on some selected text. Specifically, I would like to be able to select some text (a tracking number) and have options to lookup tracking info (UPS, FedEx, or USPS) for the selected text.

Seems useful if one does lots of shipping, no?

how do I work with attachments in unbuntu? it greys out when trying to upload any attachments in gmail and outlook. I am new and cant find unbuntu help on latest update.

Hello, I was trying to fix this issue on my browser but I was not able to do it. The OS is Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS 64-bit. Currently, I'm using Firefox version 99.0a1 but I had the same issue on version 97. Also, I have this issue on only one of my PCs. As I said in the subject: - The browser freezes the whole PC and I have to force reboot it. (I already disabled the hardware acceleration) - the recent download item open button does not trigger the opening of the folder. - If I try to download a file, the browser ask me where to save it. But if I try to download another one the browser shows me the directory with path /run/usr/1000/... I tried to delete places.sqlite but I received the same result. ... I'm attaching two screenshots also. Thanks a lot!

I'm not sure if this is a Firefox issue or not, but I use Firefox because (1) it is the default browser within Linux Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and (2) I prefer it over the more widely used Google Chrome or Chromium.

Let me first tell you that I run an AMD 5950X CPU with an EVGA RTX 3080-Ti GPU and have Xfinity Cable. I am also running a behind the scenes program called BOINC using 30 of my 32 "threads" available.

When I open Firefox and do my browsing, I usually only open no more than 4 or 5 browser tabs at once because of my CPU cores/threads limitations. But with this latest episode of updated Firefox it now has a tendency more often than not to 'hang' and stall. I need to click my mouse outside of the Firefox window to get one of the windows to respond. Also, if I try to exit Firefox it also hangs and when I go outside the Firefox window it will then ask if I want all windows closed - which I say yes to. Then I wait a few seconds and open Firefox and it opens all the same windows I had before.

I hope I'm stating this correctly, but regardless, the previous versions did not do this.

I may just have to switch and use Chromium if this continues.
