Running ubuntu on odroid u3, ff crashes when ever a file is downloaded, whether its a .pdf or anything bigger. running ff as sudo doesnt fix the problem, changing the save location does not fix the problem. however i have managed to find a work around, running ff as root. there must be some permission problems when running ff as the user and sudo, how can i change the permissions ????
