loading a particular png file crashes window manager

[Frédéric Meynadier]

Trying to open http://carto.metro.free.fr/documents/CartoRerIdf.v2.2.0.png crashes systematically, not only firefox but the whole window manager (I am sent back to the graphical login screen).

This does not happen with chromium, so I assume this is somehow linked to firefox.

Frédéric Meynadier, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

In fact it seems to work now (tested with ubuntu 13.10 / firefox 26.0+build2-0ubuntu0.13.10.2), sorry for not having tested lately. As far as I am concerned this bug may be closed.
