Re: [orca-list] Orca/Firefox 3.5 crashes on cnbc.com?



I just tried it using FF 3.5.7 on my ArchLinux box and did not experience the crash but what a long page! As I was arrowing around and using the h key to jump headers, I did come across something that loaded some SWF objects for advertisements or something and I believe I got sent back to the top of the page. Definitely annoying but no fatalities.

However, I have experienced Firefox Crashes in the past and I will include the link to a bug report that you may feel free to update.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608544

I have to say however, since I re-installed FF 3.5.7 from Mozilla precompiled binaries I have not been able to repro the problem. I had it before while using the binary from the Arch binaries but swince they went on to 3.6.2, I abandoned their packages of Firefox until Mozilla fixes their serious bookmark bugs!
I didn't know 3.5.8 came out; wonder if I should update to that or not. I don't want any repeat performances of what happened with 3.6.2!

Hi
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10, Firefox 3.5.8 with the latest git master of Orca.
If I visit:

And begin to use the structural navigation keys, eventually Orca passes
over an element that causes Firefox to crash. Orca doesn't crash along
with it, but Firefox segfaults. I'm not sure what element causes it
since, whenever I encounter it, it crashes before I can find out. Can
anyone else reproduce this on any Linux machine or is it something going
wrong on my setup? I don't want to file a bug until I'm sure it's not
just my machine.
