Firefox 34 on Linux crashing constantly, with AMD GPU + Proprietary driver

Firefox 34 is constantly crashing, at random intervals. Sometimes the crash occurs as soon as the browser starts, sometimes it'll be fine for a couple of minutes, sometimes it's an hour.
I am using an AMD GPU with the proprietary driver on Linux.
Flash is disabled.
What I have tried:
Disabling hardware acceleration
Disabling all add-ons
Creating a new profile
Re-downloading the package
Crash signature: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/list?product=Firefox&signature=libc-2.19.so%400x94470
The issue started in version 32-33, I don't remember which.
I don't know if it's related, but HTML5 x.264/MP4 playback has stopped working as well. Now I am only able to play webm video.
The crashes seem to happen more frequently when browsing YouTube.

  • What must I do to stop Firefox 6 from crashing constantly with the new Yahoo email?

    I can access the email but as soon as I perform an action Firefox crashes. All was fine til Yahoo changed to a new email

    First, don't post these long crash logs.  Hardly anyone here knows how to interpret them so they just take up space.
    You have two choices: 1. uninstall Flash; 2. Install Flash 10.3.181 and hope for the best.

    Photoshop Elements is not an Apple product, please visit an Adobe Elements forum. It is  possible your version of Elements needs to be updated, check what version is installed. If you do not know, locate the app in your Apps folder, select it and type Command + I and look for the version number. Then you can research to see if that is up-to-date.
    Try this first, if it's up-to-date and still will not store please post back and we can provide some other things to check.

  • Resolution doesn't reach 1080p - G510 with AMD GPU

    Hey there,
    I was just thinking that my G510 should be able to reach 1080p judging by the description on Amazon (which directly states that). It has a 2GB AMD GPU, yet my resolution is capped at 1366x768 at all times. Is it possible that my i7 is capping it? How do I fix this?

    Hi,
    Your screen size is 1366 x 768.  You can't add more pixels to that.  This is taken from your product description:
    "The powerful AMD Radeon HD8750M with 2GB of graphics memory dezidiertem you enjoy your videos and movies in the highest 1080p quality. Connect the G510 via built-in HDMI connector with a large screen TV, projector or external monitor and enjoy your favorite movies and videos to share with friends."
    Notice the second sentence.
    Here's the specs:  http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/lenovo/g-series/g510/
    The first entry says 1366 x 768.  You can get the resolution you desire by connecting your machine to an external monitor or TV that supports the higher resolution, but you can't add pixels to your laptop screen.
    Regards,
    Dave

  • 1.6.0u18 on x86_64 Linux  crashes immediately with OutOfMemory error

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem with the latest update of the JDK where all the binaries crash immediately with the following error:
    # ./java
    # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

    I tried both the JDK and the JRE distributions, same problem. The 32-bit JDK works just fine.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I have the vm ulimit set to 16 gigs:
    # ulimit -d -v
    data seg size           (kbytes, -d) unlimited
    virtual memory          (kbytes, -v) 16777216It does seem to work if I remove the limit.
    With the limit, specifying a max heap size manually works, and it correctly reports trying to set the heap size too high, but there seems to be a range of sizes close to the maximum that throws the error:

  • MacBook Pro 2008 crashes constantly with Yosemite

    Hi!
    I'm running an early 2008 15" MacBook Pro with 2,4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 4 GB memory, and I just installed Yosemite 10.10.2 as well as the 4 GB memory and a new Samsung 840 EVO SSD 250 GB hard drive and now my computer crashes frequently, seemingly at random. It freezes, for a second, then shuts down and starts up again and this is the report it provides once it has restarted:

    I don't understand the report at all and I couldn't find another topic with the same problem, so if anyone has any ideas what is wrong, if there's something I could fix, I'd really appreciate the help! Before the upgrade my MBP was running OS X 10.5.8 and after replacing the old hard drive with the new SSD drive and upgrading the 2 GB memory to 4 GB I first installed OS X 10.6.8 and only then downloaded Yosemite.
    I'll gladly provide more information if needed!
    Thank you,
    H

    Thanks so much for the superfast reply!
    It seems that the new RAM was the problem, although memtest on both RAMs gave me nothing but okays all the way. But I removed one of the new RAMs anyway and with only one RAM in one of the slots there hasn't been anymore panics. So thank you!
    It is kind of a shame though, because with 4 GB RAM my MBP was a lot faster and they were specifically for MBPs too, so I'm wondering what's the problem. The memtest said they were fine too, and my MBP should be able to handle max. 4 GB RAM, so could the RAM still be faulty despite what the memtest said, or is there possibly something I could do to stop the panics and still use the 4 GB RAM? I know it's probably a long shot to ask, but I have to try in case someone is experiencing the same problem and knows what to do.

    Trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on an ASUS M5A97 mobo with AMD SB850 RAID, two WD 750GB drives configured as RAID 0. No drives are recognized by W7 install, so I choose Load Drivers. I put the drivers on a USB stick. Install finds the drivers there,
    starts loading them, then comes back with "Installing an unsigned 64 bit driver is not supported and may result in an unstable Windows installation." I downloaded the latest drivers from ASUS website which are WHQL certified (as are the one's on the motherboard
    disk). I saw other posts that recommend clicking Repair instead of Install, but I don't see where that option is. All I am given as options are Upgrade or Install. Choosing Upgrade tells me to boot Windows first. But this is a brand new install so...
    I tried pressing F8 as setup was booting and chose "Disable Signed Driver Requirement" but that had no effect at all. If I turn off the RAID W7 sees both disks and happily installs. I see related posts going back to 2009; surely someone has
    a solution for this issue?

    Hi guys,
    I have been struggling with the same issue.
    Win7 x64. Gigabyte GA-X79-UD3 Mobo with Intel core i7-3930K at 3.20 GHz
    Marvell 88SE9172 SATA RAID controller with two Hitachi 500 GB spinning disks configured as RAID1
    Windows would get to the point of asking for a mass storage drive. It would not see the RAID I had created.
    Tried every driver I could find. Tried drivers from the "Station Drivers" website. Tried Marvell drivers for the same chip from the ASUS website. No luck. Tried loading from CD as well as USB flash drive. Always the same result...  Windows would find
    the drivers appropriate for the hardware found, I would select the RAID version, and after a few seconds, would report that the drivers were unsigned, and the installation was not supported for 64-bit drivers. Clicking OK would take me back to the load drivers
    display with no new drives listed in the available drives window.
    I tried hitting F8 during startup, and selected the "allow install of unsigned drivers option". That didn't do ANYTHING. Still the same error.
    Someone suggested putting the drivers in the root directory. That didn't work.  I also disabled all other drives except one CD rom and a USB drive and made sure that my RAID array was the first drive in the boot list.
    Tried doing a windows repair, as someone else suggested. (This is an option that is available on the install disk I am using. It's enabled as part of EMS (emergency management services) in setup. Anyway, this was reported to be a workaround
    to the signed driver issue. It would allow me to browse to the individual files, but no matter which one I selected, the response was "cannot find hardware appropriate to the driver selected" or some such nonesense. So I gave up on that.
    Doing the install with the controller in IDE mode with just one drive connected, would result is Windows installing without a hitch. The problem was clearly when I presented 64-bit windows with a controller in RAID mode.
    Long story less long, here's what worked for me....
    Out of desperation, I began trying other subfolders in the driver lists. The Gigabyte manual indicated that the AMD64 subfolder was the correct one for the Marvell controller, when using RAID mode with 64-bit Windows. After trying every subfolder of
    every driver I could find, the driver in the i386 folder actually worked. It initially came back with the same error about unsigned drivers, but after clicking OK, my RAID drive showed up in the list. I have been able to partition and format
    the drive from within Windows setup, and am continuing with the install now. Hopefully won't be any problems booting from the drive post install, but so far it looks good, and I'm relieved that I was able to get it this far.
    The whole process has been one of the most frustrating computing experiences I've ever had. This is what it was like back in the 90's when building PCs from scratch.  I'm amazed that in this day and age the process is still so poorly documented
    and filled with potholes, traps and caveats. Shame on the entire PC industry for allowing this to continue. I'm not asking that they jump in and try to automate it and do all the thinking for me (their solution for everything lately)...all I'm asking for it
    clear, concise and accurate INFORMATION.
    With the right information, and software that provides accurate feedback, this would all be easy...and even fun.
    Hope this helps someone faced with the same problem.

  • K8T Neo crashes pc with 3d card's driver

    I recently bought a pc containing a K8T Neo motherboard with an Athlon 64 3200+ cpu and 2x512mb 3200 DDR400 Ram.  It came with a standard VGA driver installed, so I went into safe mode (it has Win98 SE installed), removed the standard driver, restarted and installed the driver for my Geforce4 Ti4200.  But when I restarted my pc again, I got all sorts of problems : windows protection errors, blue screens, the pc just freezing (sometimes with all sorts of colours on the screen) or messages that there isn't enough memory available to run Windows .
    I tried using both the AOpen driver and the Nvidia Detonator one (45.23), but both had the same result.  I also tried this with a Geforce2 MX card, but with no change either.  I also removed my soundcard and am using the onboard sound and networking.  I installed the latest Via 4-in-1 drivers and all Win98 SE updates I could find.
    I already formatted my hard drive twice and everything installs perfectly until I try using the card's driver.
    It's possible to install a Super VGA card and Super VGA 1024x768 monitor driver, but whenever I try to switch to more than 16 colors and restart, I get a message that the adapter type is incorrect or the settings don't work with my hardware, and it gets set back to 16x640x480.
    Is there a BIOS setting I should change?  Or maybe there is a problem with a Via chipset combined with Nvidia cards?
    And why does the system find a "PCI VGA compatible adapter" when I have an AGP card installed?
    That's the third day now that I'm doing nothing but restarting and seeing error messages.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
    (sorry for the long post)

    I installed the 4-in-1 drivers, then my card's drivers, after which ... my whole C: drive became corrupt and I had to format and re-install Win98SE.
    During this install I got a BSOD but Windows seemed to install correctly anyway.
    I did the above step again (installing the Aopen Ti4200 drivers and software) and got a black screen after restarting and 2 cursors, blinking randomly.
    Do you want me to tell you voltage values from my BIOS?
    And if so, where can I find these?
    I got a 350W power supply which came with my Aopen A600A case btw.
    Are you suggesting my card/pc isn't receiving enough power to work at full blast?
    I indeed get most of the problems resulting from too little voltages as mentioned in the link you gave me.
    And if by a "sirene" they mean a constant beeping sound, then yeah it's most probably a voltage problem.
    [edit]
    Here are my 350W power supply voltage settings :
    +3.3v  28A
    +5V  30A
    +12V  16A
    +5Vsb  2A
    -5V  0.3A
    -12V  0.8A
    (+3.3V & +5V = 220W Max)
    And in my BIOS they fluctuate as follows :
    Vcore  1.552V
    +5V  5.168V
    +12V  11.923V
    -12V  -12.071V
    -5V  -5.077V
    Battery 3.520V
    +5V SB  4.993V

  • Since the last update Firefox has been crashing constantly and something is VERY WRONG with the update!!!!!!!!! Why?

    Since the last update to Firefox, I have had crashes non stop about every ten minutes or so, with very typical use. The update SUCKS and is crashing computers. I am SURE I am not the only one. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP. I have been a Firefox user forever, but now going to Chrome and Explorer until I hear from you about fixing this issue. Never before have I had this problem with Firefox. Bums me out. But I can't deal with the constant crashes and it is ABSOLUTELY since the last update a day or two ago.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • Firefox on Linux crashes when loading java script web page while running on Windows works fine

    Hello all,
    well in my effort in writting php I frequently use phpanywhere.com
    The site loads successfully in both Windows and Linux setup (fully up-dated). However, when I press on .php file so to begin editing the Linux installed Firefox crashes and closes down every time (also when using different preference under JacaScript menu). Windows setup seems to have no problem at all.
    This has been checked in three different PC with Ubuntu Maveric installed on them. In all these cases Firefox crashes.
    Any possible ideas on that one?

    I have the same problem. I've never been able to identify when it started. Once firefox crashes, mpd, if it was playing, becomes unresponsive. The only way to get a flash site working again is to reboot my computer.
    I uninstalled flash: I'm not going to put up with that kind of behaviour. Now I watch youtube videos on other people's computers --you know how they say "You've GOT to see this movie!". And if I really need to see that one specific video, there's youtube-dl.
    Unfortunately gnash doesn't work on youtube for me.

  • Photoshop CS6 Trial crashes constantly with 3D objects

    Photoshop CS6 is extremely unstable for me when I try and do any 3D editing. It crashes when I try to move, scale, and otherwise orient the object. It crashes when I try to do Snap to Ground Plane. When it doesn't crash at Snap to Ground Plane, the command doesn't work and nothing snaps to the ground plane.
    Here's a 1 minute video of it crashing. The first part shows that I've already defined the ground plane. The second part shows me wanting to put a peice of furniture into the room and finding the Snap to Ground Plane option. When I click it, the program crashes.

    I already have the latest drivers for my HD 5650, and I can't upgrade my video card because it's a laptop.
    Any options short of spending $1000+ to get a new video card?
    Screenshots of my preferences - if I disable the use of my graphics processor I no longer have any 3D functionality in Photoshop, if I set my drawing mode to Advanced and place checkmarks on things it crashes as well:

    Thanks for the replies. I got it working through a driver update (Sony VPCEB)
    The problem was that I have a Sony laptop with an ATI card, and when I try to download the latest Catalyst from AMD I get an error during install saying that I *have* to get my driver updates from Sony because Sony has configured the video card to work with certain hardware on the laptop in a certain way. The driver I already had was the latest update Sony had for my laptop, so I thought I was painted into a corner - Sony's update is years old and the official ATI update refused to install.
    I went and searched and got the Catalyst 12.2 Pre-Certified bundle and luckily that did NOT have the Sony check for some reason. I installed that just fine and it works. So far it doesn't seem to have broken anything. FYI the version is Catalyst 12.2, but the actual video driver is 8.950.0.0
    I'm now going to make a seperate post about how I can't get textures and snap to ground plane to work.

  • Had to reinstall win 7 and forced to install latest firefox version which crashes constantly. tried disablin all plugins/extensions to no avail. crash report sig is RtlpWaitOnCriticalSection | RtlpDeCommitFreeBlock | nvlsp.dll@0x5d0d

    Latest version of Firefox crashes almost constantly, even when just showing yahoo.com. Often crashes just on opening another page, etc. No rhyme or reason to crashes.
    Ready to bail out of this to opera/safari or, God help, IE as this is useless.

  • Final Cut Pro X crashes constantly with unique error.

    Just opening FCPX 10.0.6 on my Mac Pro (OS X 10.8.2) makes it crash. From the event log, here's the only error that pops up (and it's the same one that's crashed on me 20 times today.)
    Crashed Thread:  47  com.apple.helium-render-queue-exec-unit-gpu
    Even after a wipe and reinstallation of OS X and FCPX on the Mac Pro, I still get this crash and the app is unusable.
    It's a Mac Pro 4,1 with an ATI Radeon HD 4870 card (the same card it came with).
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
    EDIT: I have NO third-party plugins. This is a straight FCPX install, nothing else is on the box.

    I have this same exact crash - except mine happens about 20% of the time when I adjust any parameter (ie opacity or a plugin ) of a clip that is playing IF any currently playing clip has a motion effect applied to it. Any motion effect - even ones I created.
    Happens on OS X 10.8.3 on two different macbook pros! - one from late 2011 and one from early 2008. On the new machine I have also installed a brand new 10.8.2 system on an external drive with only FCPX installed and also get this crash when booted from that.
    Lack of RAM should not cause a crash - just slow things down - but no lack here - 2008 mbp has 6GB and new mpb has 16GB.
    Otherwise these machines are rock solid. I use (or have used) them extensively for performing music/interactive video on stage where everything must work… or else.
    On the 2011 machine I forced the use of the integrated graphics for FCPX instead of the real graphics card. Also got the crash then.
    I tried with clips imported from a panasonic GH2 and from my iPod Touch. Both caused crashes, so its probably not my video clips.
    I did not have this problem in OS X 10.6.8, which i was on until a few weeks ago.
    Tried running the trial of Digital Rebellion's Pro Maintenance Tools - here's the output:
    Motion Effect
    This crash appears to have been caused by a Motion Effect.
    Suggested Actions
    Use Housekeeper to run a Comprehensive clean.
    Remove third party filters from clips, or use Plugin Manager to disable them completely.
    Relevant Line
    2 com.apple.Motion.effect 0x000000010c41fd05 -[FFMotionEffect newImageAtTime:duration:withInputStream:context:downstreamPT:channelOffset:roi: ] + 885
    Report generated by Crash Analyzer in Pro Maintenance Tools
    So I ran their comprehensive clean. Didn't help. But then again how could it? - a new totally clean system exhibited the problem.
    I can't think of any common thread behind all the machine/OS combinations besides:
    OS X 10.8.2 or 3
    FCP X 10.0.7
    Unfortunately I think i just trashed my zip copy of the last verision of FCP X to test, which i tend to keep around for a while when a new version comes out, but as 10.0.7 was fine on 10.6.8 which I was running until recently, I trashed 10.0.6. Is there any way to get older version of software from the app store?
    Thoughts? Sounds like a genuine bug to me - the amount of different configurations it happens in. I don't know why everyone isn't having/complaining about this problem.

  • Pro  cs3 crashing constantly with extra audio

    As described above; when putting another audio wavefile on the timeline [track 2] pro cs3 starts crashing [pc boots!] when moving along the timeline and using the ripple edit tool.
    Project doesn't want to open again afterwards...
    I use aspect hd to edit hdv in a cineform pal preset.
    All updates for pro cs3 are taken care of.
    Tried the same thing in Pro 2, and no crashing there.
    Currently i am using pro2 again, but i was wondering if there are more people who are experiencing this.

    Some additional information:
    Sound card is a Claro Plus XT not XP.  Used to typing XP heh
    Also, the video capture works with the included blackmagic capture software, as well as freeware solutions like VirtualDub and a Japanese freeware program I use.  I'm able to capture video and audio without issue on those.  Just don't know why Premiere doesn't do it...
