Mageia freezes completely (repetedly) after some times use of FF4. I cannot say if this is FF4 related - but that is when it happens to me. I have not been able to reconstruct this with Chromium or during other activities. To reconstruct: In VB Open FF4 and use it for a while.
Hi, I think this issue is resolved no ?

I have not been able to reproduce the freeze of the entire Mageia system. I managed to do a 64bit flash install and started to write a post in a forum when firefox-bin (FF6) got completely unresponsive. I tried to start a terminal but it would not pop and although I could navigate the menus the "shutdown" or "restart" did not work. So basically I got the cursor movement back - but it is still frozen for practical purposes. After a brutal restart I was able to reproduce the error within 5 minutes. Terminal with htop and Firefox6 were running This time the entire system froze like before. Different FF version - same problem. So the problem remains.

Do you have log of crash ? /var/log/Xorg.0.log /var/log/syslog or another one ?
Xorg.0.log: [ 679.683] (EE) VBoxVideo(0): Unable to determine whether the virtual machine supports mouse pointer integration - request initialization failed with return code -4 It looks like it confuses my USB sidewinder Keyboard with the mouse. Because it is the keyboard that gets inresponsive. Also the error does not occur when I use Opera So it might be triggered by FF somehow.
It just froze while using Opera so it is not specific for FF. I can move the cursor and get the dropdown menus and start some applications like the terminal. I cannot write anything in the terminal. And I am unable to close Opera.
@ Thomas Is the problem still there? If so, do you only get it when web browsing, or also when using other applications? You're using cauldron and you have a completely updated system, or do you use Mageia 1 at the moment? Which version of VirtualBox do you use? Is it only the keyboard that freezes, atm ? Does it help to unplug the keyboard and plug it back in? If that helps, please open a terminal and as root type tailf /var/log/messages 2>&1 | tee output.txt and attach output.txt here When you start your browser from a console, do you see any interesting messages when this happens?
