I had problems with Firefox on four computers running fully updated Centos 6. Firefox was suddenly taking up a lot of CPU power showing nothing but a blank webpage, on all four computers. Closing and re-opening Firefox didn't fix it, logging out and back in didn't fix it, but rebooting the machines did. Some google searching indicates to me that there was a problem with Firefox using a futex that got confused by the leap second, and getting into a loop. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER!
