Hello :)

Firefox 102.0.1 crashes after some Time. Firefox then is unable to switch between Tabs and stuck at the opened Website.

For testing Purpose i start over with a new profile and did not install any Add-ons. The behavior was the same, it crashes after some hours.

My System is Ubuntu Mate (Ubuntu with Mate Desktop) in Version 20.04.

Here has someone the same problem: -> https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=277649

Thanks for any suggestions.

I would try Firefox from Mozilla and see if you have the same issues. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release Have you tried running Firefox in Safe Mode to see if you still have the same issues? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubleshoot-mode Are you comfortable with strace to see what's causing the crash?

I would also fire up a live usb stick or vm and try another OS just to compare. wink wink  ;-)) https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-KDE-Live-x86_64-Current.iso

Or just switch to KDE or Gnome.

This is bad, but a good thing that both distro and Mozilla Firefox crash. What version of Firefox did you try? Nightly is my daily driver a I've had no issues, but I had to kill 102.0 in Windows and Linux. I can't recall the last time I had to do that. Your output ends with madvise(0x7ff909e91000, 16384, MADV_DONTNEED) = 0 I would head over to your Ubuntu forum and ask about this.

Google search on Madvdontneed

Thanks again for your Support, jonzn4SUSE!

I have moved from Ubuntu Mate 20.04 to 22.04, the error also happens there!

I have asked on my ubuntu Forum and i will return for clearance if the error gets solved.

The Problem still remains on Firefox 105.0.1. I cant use Firefox any more and i have switched to a chromium-based Browser for now.

Is Mozilla aware of the problem?

Issue happens with distro and Mozilla version of Firefox on different versions of ubuntu. Sounds like an OS issue. Try reporting a bug and see what they say.
