Guys if you are using my repo on CentOS 6 then the new Firefox might not like the old ffmpeg I ship.
There is new and apparently working stuff in my testing repo; try to upgrade and see if that solves the problem. Feedback welcome so I can move the testing packages in the main repo sooner, rather than later.
yum --enablerepo=nux-dextop-testing update ffmpeg

Good afternoon,
Apologies if this topic has come up before but I've found that the Firefox 45.1.0 stability to be somewhat lacking.
For example, I can't use it for Twitter because it crashes. It also crashes when I log into gmail. This happens every time I try these URL's.
Any suggestions on improving the stability?
It has not crashed on twitter at all for me.
I do run privacy badger on Twitter which blocks a lot of resources that want to track me, maybe some of those resources are what firefox is having trouble with?
I also don't have flash installed, nore Java plugin (not even iced-tea)
Right, well I can't do that at work. And I just had to downgrade firefox from 45, because I was *trying* to do my annual required privacy and security refresher, and it opened, it has, I think, flash audio, and firefox crashed, fired it up again, restored, and started and it crashed *again*, and a third time, and that was it: I downgraded, didn't have to (also couldn't) downgrade flash-plugin, but had no trouble at all completing the training. Note that I *could* play streaming media and youtube with 45, but... and, no, you've *got* to be joking to think I'm going to convince upper management to ban flash....
