Comment 6 for bug 1030786

And I accidentally submitted the comment without finishing it.

Anyway, so with Ubuntu playing up generally, I checked my ram again, found that the 2GB stick (two sticks, one 2GB and one 512MB) was bad. I removed it, and the other problems stopped. I just thought today that Firefox had also stopped crashing as well. It maybe related. (Funny that it was only ever Firefox or the entire system that had a problem, and that none of my other individual programs (including Evolution, Rhythmbox, Abiword or LibreOffice) had a problem.)

Anyway, so maybe the cause of my problems was bad ram. I'll leave it open as it affects others though. And I'll comment again if Firefox does crash randomly again.
