I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

like the title says, i installed the latest Firefox update and my graphics driver started crashing every few minutes. tried updating my graphics card driver (Nvidia RTX3070) and tried to set the browser to software rendering, but nothing helps, it keeps going black and restart every few minutes.

There really should be a option to revert from a update, i had this a lot with Firefox, troubles after updates. And with no way to fix it, so i have to use another browser until it is fixed..kinda troublesome.

Dear Team,

I'm using version 114.0 (64 bits) with Eset Internet Security 16.1.14.0 installed on a Windows 10 machine 22H2 Build 19045.2965. I have refreshed Firefox from previous version yesterday (06/06/2023) (it asked me to restart the browser). Since then I cannot load any page (not even the about:crashes or settings or passwords, or any website). All pages keep on crashing, the reports are not generated nor sent to support. I have tried to locate the crash reports under APPDATA, but none being generated. I also tried to disable my anti-virus software thinking it may cause an issue, but still no luck. The same happens in Safe mode as well. Tried clean install as well, but again the same thing happens.

Kindly look into it!

Best regards,

Sandor

Hello, I'd like some help with a performance issue. Basically, when using the theme "Pixel-Punk" while playing a video, ram usage by the GPU slowly increases. It increases until it reaches 8GB, where Firefox will soft crash, displaying a white screen. Firefox will be reloaded, with the animated banner portion in Firefox usually disabled or flickering on and off. The GPU item in the process manager also disappears and ram usage no longer increases. The slow nature of the problem makes it hard to diagnose but I'm fairly certain it's due to this theme. The problem doesn't appear with it off, or even on, until I start watching a YouTube video, where ram usage will slowly increase. If I disable the theme ram usage stops increasing but doesn't decrease to it's previous state. I've also tried refreshing Firefox but that didn't help. Also, I don't have an option for hardware acceleration so I can't troubleshoot that option. I've asked the Firefox subreddit and I was guided to the profiler, but that's a little over my head. Is there a way to fix this? I quite like this theme, and I haven't seen any complaints in the reviews. There are also lots of variables, like the extensions I have, my hardware configuration and such. my hardware for info: laptop - Lenovo Legion 5i Pro Gen 7 (2022) CPU- 12700H RAM- 16GB GPU- 3070ti

So slow I almost think MSFT AI has invented a thing that trips you up... After all, they're the fallback. Just saying.

I have MSFT 11 on a strong Nvidia gaming laptop. It's a fast machine. Once Firefox is open everything works fine and fast. It's just the opening.

Thank you, Liah

When I enter either of these internal addresses, it fails:

http://dfa shows: Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site. We can’t connect to the server at dfa.

http://rpi-m92a-ad82:3003/ Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site. We can’t connect to the server at rpi-m92a-ad82.

Both issues are similar, but neither work as expected.

dfa is an alias for a longer name such as dfa.int.example.com. The local DNS (/etc/resolv.conf) will reply with the correct IP if asked for "dfa" but not "dfa." due to the dot forcing the Fully Qualified Domain Name to be "dfa." only. We wish to opt to leave off the rest of the url.

For the raspberry pi, it is a mDNS. So doing "rpi-m92a-ad82.local" works. But this used to work long ago, and ended 10 or 20 updates ago as best as I can remember.

How can I convince Firefox to query DNS, then query mDNS, and if both fail perform a search?

I was wondering if anyone knew why I am having this issue. On occasion when I walk away from my computer with Firefox running (usually 20-30 minutes) I come back to find the browser itself has closed, including Private/Incognito tabs. Everything else on my computer has continued to function as per normal, nor has the computer itself seem to have restarted itself. It is only Firefox that this is happening with.

Hi,

Firefox 114 suffers from huge memory leaks when there are videos on sites (ie. youtube). RDD Process grows up to 8GB and system becomes less responsive. Then Firefox crashes after a while, but there's no report included. I tried manually disabling extensions, but it didn't help. However, problem isn't present in 'troubleshooting mode'.

Hi,

As the attached screenshot shows, my browser fails to correctly show Arabic characters in textboxes. Sometime, the same problem happens when loading a page too. I tested it with Arabic, Persian and Kurdish keyboards and still get the same problem.

My Firefox version is 113.02 (64-bit). I use an Apple M1 Pro (Ventura 13.2.1).

This problem exists since early 2023.

A white screen occurs when browsing the web. If you turn off "Use recommended performance settings" and "Use hardware acceleration when available" the problem is fixed, but then the browser slows down. Can this be fixed in another way?
