Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

... Firefox SIGSEGV when manipulating display whilst it was starting up (Restore)

Sorry, can't give any more info than I have above. First time it's happened, though. I don't usually fiddle with the window until it's "restore"d last time's tabs, so I think this was the difference.
