Hi,
Apologies if this is not the right place to post. I upgraded to Karmic yesterday, and since then Firefox (which was also upgraded to 3.5.3) has stopped behaving properly. The scrolling is jagged, links work strangely (for instance for <next> (e.g. picture) it might jump one or two (as if it automatically clicked very quickly)), the fonts are different and worse. Also, when I use Ubiquity, some strange things are printed in whatever terminal was first opened. The dropdown url bar doesn't work anymore, either. I have tried deleting history and cache, renaming files in the profiles, disabling some addons, to no avail.
These are the addons I currently have installed:
Adblock Plus
BetterPrivacy
Download statusbar
Downthemall
Flashgot
Ubiquity
Vimperator
None of these will update ("An error occurred while trying to update ...").
As mentioned, this is on Ubuntu recently upgraded to 9.10. I am (and have been) using Xmonad as window manager, replacing metacity. This is also not the source of the issues, it appears.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
