Still can not stream fox news, and Chrome still is working great streaming Fox News...

Streaming starts and stops, rewinds to scenes previously displayed, jumps to new timelines,

then comes up with a window saying ,,, Looks like a loading issue, try again later,,,,,

well I have been "trying again" for six months....

I have reported this several times  !

I am using Firefox on a Linux Mint system

I am almost ready to switch to Chrome as you all don't seem to pay attention to problems !!!

Hi, I've been a use of FF since it was Netscape (yes I'm old). And its always been my favorite above all. However, with the recent update (ver 136, either installed from a .tar downloaded or an app via apt install) it starts fine but no matter what URL I try to access the busy indicator spins but nothing ever happens. I've tried disabling all my extensions to no avail. I'm also searched for others experiencing this issue. All my other browsers seem to work well on all the same sites.

I'm kind of at a loss so if anyone has any suggestions/ideas please share?

Thanks BobMCT

I am having difficulty using Google Sheets within Firefox Developer Edition 144.0b4 (64-bit) on Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon. When I load any of my Google Sheets, I am unable to scroll. This includes when using a blank sheet.

I also have Firefox 143.0.1, which seems to still be functioning correctly.

Is this a bug or config problem?

Occasionally, FF (Linux desktop) starts using a lot of memory. I kill tabs (sometimes it is OK to kill YouTube or X, sometimes not)

Eventually it starts impacting the system using so much memory. I terminate the FF instance. Often. More often than not. There is a separate task still running and I get the "Firefox is still running" when I try to restart. I then kill the remaining FF task via the OS or the process monitor. Then FF restarts.

Is this an issue with addons (I am running very few - uBlock Orign, and Privacy Badger and Cookie AutoDelete. Are the only ones active most of the time) Or is it an actual bug with garbage collection, and tasks getting away? Or is it an OS issue?

Hi! After a routine update today to Mozilla Firefox 127.0 for Linux Mint, Firefox is asking for my master password before letting me continue. Sync does not appear to be enabled.

I'd really rather it didn't do this, because my password manager is now always open and accessible. Previously, the master password request was only triggered when I came on a site that needed a password.

Anything I can do to fix this?

Thanks for any pointers!

I run Firefox under Linux Mint. Both are always update to the latest level. Over the past 1 to 1.5 years, across updates to both Firefox and Mint and multiple 'clean' installs of Firefox, I have experienced many crashes from Firefox per week. Sometimes there will be as many as 5 per day, but never less than one per day. During the same period I have also been running Vivaldi; it has not crashed once in that time. Now I have to do something. If there is a simple way to perform 'problem source identification', that is within my capability, I would be grateful for advice. If there is not, then clearly I will have to un-install Firefox.

As far as I can tell both of these browsers run with just 1 add-on/extension: uBlock Origin. Disabling this extension in Firefox does not stop Firefox from crashing.

Running Linux-Mint on my laptop. Trying to run an epson ET-2400 ink jet Printer. Need Driver for printer. I have seen some information about software that needs to be added to "talk" to the printer but I cannot find it now. Please someone help.

Hi Team, I am using Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon. Cinnamon version is 4.6.6. The issue is that I was browsing and by mistake I selected one tab then dragged it for sometime and then released the tab but that created a new window and now the old windows are not visible in ALT + Tab function. The windows are showing in the Firefox task manager and also the box icon in the top right corner in that "open tabs". Now I am not able to even change the window or able to access the opened tabs. Attached the screenshot and as you can see in that there are total 4 windows showing in firefox and one as active but in the bottom on the firefox icon you can see its only 1 window. How can I access the remaining 3 windows? Found one ticket (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1477845) in this the recommend solution does not work. When I try to click on the window 1 tabs then I do not get any response. I tried both the solution but none worked.

Thanks for the help in advance. @Mozilla team member is seeing please check and fix this bug if possible.

i am having problems to install firefox 135.0 on linux mint 19.3 and if can get instructions that work looked on internet i havent found help there is there a sure fire way to solve this problem ?

I use tiling for my windows. After minimizing and then restoring the windows, the tab bar is no longer displayed. If I don't tile the windows, this error doesn't occur. I'm using the latest version of Mint Cinnamon. This error also occurred in debug mode.

$ wmctrl -m Name: Mutter (Muffin) Class: N/A PID: N/A Window manager's "showing the desktop" mode: OFF

Looking for a fix on a right-click issue that I keep having...

When using Linux Mint (Cinnamon), the right-click context menu occasionally becomes misaligned with the cursor position. Attached image shows a right click on the text box in the right browser window triggering a popup in the left browser window.

This most frequently happens when:

• Multiple windows are open AND
• The window being right-clicked on is "snapped" into place (by dragging to the side of the screen)

Error seems to occur most frequently on windows snapped to the right-hand-side of the screen.

Context menu placement is offset by an arbitrary amount determined at time of window-snapping. E.g., moving the cursor down 1 inch in the example image below will move the menu down 1 inch as well. Un-snapping the window, and re-snapping can adjust menu-cursor-offset distance.

Running Linux Mint 22 and FF 138.0.3. Normal practice is to leave 2 or 3 FF windows open on shutdown so the same windows and tabs will re-open on future boot-ups when opening FF. In the last several versions of FF as well as of the OS, those tabs appear on boot but display random text within a random tab for a given window. Also, the highlighted icon in the tray does not match the window that has opened. If I click and re-click the tray icons, they eventually display as expected.

Running Linux Mint 22 on Dell desktop. On bootup, no bookmarks and message with link to restore them. Restarting computer sometimes works after multiple tries but often does not, currently on FF 138.0.3 but this problem has come up on several previous versions of Mint as well as FF. Now more frequent. No security or other software apps have been added or changed.

The last time I got the bookmarks to show I used the FF Save Bookmarks function to save them to a stick. That file shows on the stick as a .json file. Mozilla's choice, not mine. Manage Bookmarks in the hamburger menu generates a pop-up "Library" that will not access the .json file.

Since the latest update, when I right-click on a bookmark or an item in the history list (from the menu or the bookmarks toolbar), I still get the menu that has items like "Open in new tab" or "Edit Bookmark".

However, the focus for the mouse stays on the previous menu, so that I can't click on anything in the "right-click menu", instead it is interpreted as a click in some random item in the previous menu.

Going into troubleshoot mode didn't help, so I don't think it's my configuration causing this.

installed mint 22 and my sound does not work, in you tube see videos good but no sound i think its a driver issue, but i am new to linux trying to fix. any help is good.

I'm attempting to sync my account between a Windows host and a Linux host. Logging into my account on Linux brings up a "Authorize this sign-in" window that demands entry of a 7-char "Authorization Code" (not the same as a six-digit authentication code) which is emailed to me. After entering the authorization code, a window appears stating "Bad request - Something went wrong. Please close this tab and try again." This happens consistently, and only on the Linux host. Firefox 134.0.2 mint-001 1.0. Linux Mint 22.1. Any ideas about what went wrong?

I have been using Linux Mint 21+ since May of 2023. At that time I set all the Firefox preferences settings to what I've always set them to in the past, and have run Firefox with them ever since then. Now, about 3-4 weeks ago, I started Firefox and it came up with ONLY blue lines of text (not graphically). My Firefox homepage is "isp.netscape.com". I've waited until now to report the problem, since I was hoping that later Firefox updates would fix itself, but this did not occur with the 3-5 Firefox recent updates.

Originally, I posted the problem to the Linux Mint forums with the following title under SOFTWARE & APPLICATIONS: Firefox browser no longer graphical but only lines of blue text

Somebody there advised me to start Firefox in safe mode, which I did with this command in the terminal: firefox -safe-mode

and to my surprise, Firefox then came up graphically once again. However, going through the Firefox preferences and setting them one at a time, I came to what is causing the problem. Setting PRIVACY & SECURITY -> BROWSER PRIVACY -> HISTORY: "Remember History" to "Never Remember History" forces Firefox to reboot and when it comes up it came up with only blue lines of text, and not graphically.

One responder to my post on Linux Mint forums stated that it was also a problem with her on Windows 11. So, this is not a Linux Mint, or Windows 11 issue, but a Firefox issue. Mozilla made some change to Firefox back 4-5 weeks now that all of a sudden made Firefox come up in blue lines of text, and I changed nothing with Firefox since started with Linux Mint 21.3 1.5 years ago. I will add though, that ONLY my Firefox homepage (listed above) is the only page that is affected by this, every other website I visit comes up graphically.

What's UP?
