Ubuntu is constantly crashing with programs like Codeblocks and Firefox.
With Firefox it just goes slightly dark and after 6-7 seconds it's running again. But in code-blocks it just crashes.
I tried reinstalling Codeblocks but it didn't work.

Does Ubuntu Crashes Only when you are opening Firefox or when on start up ?– Gokul P SJul 26, 2013 at 14:47

On startup, While opening firefox and when opening codeblocks.– Tamim AddariJul 26, 2013 at 18:50

Have you checked to see if there are any open bugs that relate to your problem for that program? As for Firefox greying out and then coming back, that means that the program wasn't responding. You probably had too much running for the amount of memory you had available. Happens to me all the time as I have an old computer with less than a GB of RAM.– RPiAwesomenessSep 2, 2013 at 14:24

@TamimAdDari: Take a look at <a href="bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/codeblocks/+bug/…> bug and see if it is related to your problem.– RPiAwesomenessSep 2, 2013 at 14:40

I could not get codeblocks to work in Ubuntu saucy
In the end I found a repository that solved it here (latest post) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/codeblocks/+bug/1176508
- apt-get --purge remove codeblocks*
- added those 4 lines to my sources.list,
- apt-get update
- apt-get install codeblocks*
It will install some stuff from normal ubuntu repositories and the codeblocks-specific packages from there (it said raring, rev 9295 when I did it).
This works for me, hope it helps others
