Ubuntu 16.0.4.3 Gnome Desktop
I have no text entry or keyboard capabilities in my firefox browser when running in firejail, or regular usrspace.
Running:
firejail firefox --noprofile
results in a firefox browser that will connect successfully to bookmarked links, but wont receive any keyboard input. I then tried running firefox outside firejail in regular usrspace and experienced the same no-kb-working results. I got here by running gnome-www-browser in terminal, which opens a fully functional firefox.
Error messages in terminal:
(firefox:12): IBUS-WARNING **: Events queue growing too big, will start to drop.

Dmesg errors:

So my best guess is a shared memory failure messing up the ibus- but nothing in my logs remotely points to its root cause beyond these few reports. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can track down and isolate this?
