Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

I tried to open a new firefox window by using its icon. I already had one open in another desktop workspace (at a page which I know uses a little bit of flash). The application crashed whilst the new window was being created, dropping my old firefox windows too. It's happened more than once, but it's not straightforwardly repeatable for me. I often work with the aforementioned flash page open in another workspace, since I use it for tracking time whilst I work. I'll add to this if I find any new info.

Sorry, I'm less useful now. All my machines are updated to feisty now, and this bug hasn't occurred there despite an identical workflow. I'm guessing it's something that has been since fixed.

Thanks for your efforts.
