Bug Description

When you open Firefox after a crash, or after shutting down the system without closing firefox, it usually restores the last session.

At random times, when it restores the last session, it does open as many tabs as were open in the last session and does show the correct addresses in the address bar, BUT all tabs only shows blank pages with (Untitled) as the title. You have to manually click each tab, click on the address bar and hit Enter.

Teo,

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported? Please let us know if you do.

If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
