Firefox 3 Beta 5 Hangs after upgrade to hardy 8.04

Asked by Martin Kaffanke

Hi there!

I use firefox 3 Beta 5 now after an upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04. Now I find out that on my two upgraded computers (a notebook and a desktop) Firefox hangs sometimes. This happens mostly a short time after loading a new site, when I try to fill a formular or even when I scroll.

Using compiz on the desktop grays out the firefox window for a few seconds (5 to 10) and comes back and I can work on, so there is no crash. On metacity it doesn't gray out but hangs too.

If I can send you additional information please tell me.

Thanks,
Martin

Can you kindly tell us the following:
1) How are you starting/running compiz?
2) Is fusion-icon been installed?
3) What are the settings of your compiz?
