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.

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers, click it and select Submit.

Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box below and paste them in.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode;

Type about:preferences#advanced<Enter> in the address bar.

Under Advanced, Select General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.

Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?
