[Bug 120781] Re: Firefox hangs on websites when using gecko-mediaplayer plug in/gnome-mediaplayer/mplayer

[Kevin DeKorte]

I wish you would rethink this response. We have done some extensive
testing on this problem (probably over 20 hrs all told) and have found
that if we use GDM to start GNOME it causes Firefox to behave
erratically when launched from an icon. From the same session but just
opening a terminal and launching firefox causes firefox to work with no
problems. Also we found that if we don't use GDM to start GNOME but
instead use startx we don't see the problem in either case. It seems
that something in being set differently when using GDM to start GNOME.
Also, there seem to be quite a few bugs that mention Firefox hanging
with flash, I'm wondering if these are all related.
