Bug Description
Bug reproduced with Firefox, Firefox-
Newly updated Gutsy from Feisty (apt.sources modification and apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade without any problem).
Steps to reproduce :
- Thunderbird :
* launch thunderbird ;
* use the menu to open a "gtk window" (e.g. Edit -> preferences. Works when creating a new mail or answering a mail too, but not when opening Account settings) ;
* thunderbird either crashes immediately or gets stuck forever (need to kill -9 it).
- Firefox & Granparadiso :
* launch Firefox ;
* get somewhere to download something (e.g. kernel.org) ;
* firefox gets stuck (need to kill -9 it) when clicking on the download link. Using the menu to open Preferences crashes firefox too.
Some more tests tell that changing gtk/gnome or firefox/thunderbird themes has no impact on this bug.
I'm using an i386 version of Ubuntu on a dual core AMD64.
I couldn't find an existing bug that looks like this one, but there are so many that I may have missed it... sorry if this is the case...
I'm available for further testing / detailed information.
