I updated to Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit yesterday and there are problems everywhere. Firefox almost never works. It crashes all the time. I also get some system errors. I can't find anyone else having the same problems. I wonder if it's a hardware thing. I even reinstalled Ubuntu to see if it was an installation issue but the problems remain the same.

Below is some crash data I collected from firefox:

  • How exactly did you update? If it was from a dvd you might need to run another updated on the newly upgraded machine.

  • I didn't update exactly. My previous OS was W8.

  • Have you run a sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade since? You might not be running the most recent firefox.

I too get some system errors. Most of them are due to a bug causing old errors to pop up.

$ sudo rm /var/crash/*

should fix that. For Firefox try:

$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall firefox

  • For me just a system restart was enough.
