Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

1. Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
2. Mozilla Firefox 3.6.3+nobinonly-0ubuntu4
3. I expect to fill in the navigator's address bar with whatever site i'm willing to visit.
4. Instead, firefox seems to suppress characters, recording just one in two I type. It's no keyboard issue, I guess - as it works perfectly in the search bar, as well as in editors and other applications. It happens every now and then, unfortunately i'm still unable to trace a pattern, as it sometimes "just works fine".
Thanks a lot!
