To have some privacy I run Noscript and only give limited approval for access. Firefox seems to be only set up to run on M$ systems. The sometimes 5 and more deaths (FF) per day are getting quite old.
Strange, I rarely have Firefox die on me (my machine's up time is between kernel upgrades and Firefox is always running with noscript as one of the addons). However, I am on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed using the Intel driver.
You should try to figure out what is causing the crashs. Have you tried turning off GPU acceleration in Firefox?
The crashes seem to be related to libglib-2.0 - - - exactly what that means - - well - - - I don't know. I increased the level from 4 to 7 on the GPU settings as I have ram to burn. Thanks for the ideas!! Dee
