It does work great, but for whatever reason, running Firefox on my Linux desktop eventually leads to CPU lockups and crashes. Using Chrome doesn't. I can't pinpoint what would be causing the issue, but it happens multiple times per day with Firefox. Even on a fresh install.
- timbit42 4y agoIs it the CPU or the display locking up? Could it be the video driver? If you have Nvidia or Radeon, try the other video driver.
- pwpw 4y agoIt's the CPU. I have NVIDIA and have tried both drivers. I can't pin down the cause or recreate it on demand, but it's always when I'm running Firefox. It's happening at least once per day now, which is frustrating, but I've sort of just accepted it after reinstalling Firefox, updating/switching drivers, and updating BIOS. Unfortunately I enjoy Firefox a lot more than Chrome!
