[Bug 875538] Re: [Firefox 3.6.23] Impossible to open firefox because firefox-bin process is still running

[Paul Crawford]

I also see it on my PC (32-bit 10.04, nvidea graphics) but it is not
always showing the plugin module running. One time this morning after it
happened I got this:

paul at paul-ubuntu:~$ ps -Af | grep firefox
paul     29536     1  1 19:39 ?        00:01:13 /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.23/firefox-bin
paul     29589 29536  0 19:39 ?        00:00:00 /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.23/plugin-container /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so 29536 plugin true
paul     32763  4940  0 21:20 pts/1    00:00:00 grep firefox

However a short while later it showed only this:

paul at paul-ubuntu:~$ ps -Af | grep firefox
paul      9215  4940  0 12:01 pts/1    00:00:00 grep firefox
paul     29536     1  0 Oct28 ?        00:07:13 /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.23/firefox-bin

As already commented, it looks like Firefox has closed normally, but
clearly it has not.
