This one i do not know
Hi folks first off thanks for all the assistance recently Now this one is one from memory i may have had before using Firefox to access You tube go to post comments on video's ant the text entry is very very slow i am not a quick typist by any stretch of the imagination but if i type a line of text i can almost make a cup of tea before it finishes printing on the screen I had thought it was FF but i have tried several previous versions that were all working perfectly on the previous install any ideas at all i firmly believe it is system based as i have gone back 5 releases of FF that were fine on the previous system . The installed version is also perfectly ok on the LapTop that is at the same level as this machine both updated at the same time ideas please Thanks Pete
Hi, "This one i do not know" is not the best subject line ;). The only tip I have is that you shouldn't trip yourself up and rely on assumptions instead of rational troubleshooting. Since an upgrade a few days ago, my selected GTK themes were suddenly replaced for the 2nd time today during a session by some totally broken themes, so that I had to log out and log in again. I have some suspicions, but no time for rational troubleshooting right now. Only when I have the time to investigate the problem rationally will I perhaps try measures such as downgrades. If you have suspicions because you see some kind of pattern, it's easy to waste valuable time with pointless actions. Now for a few more ideas. How does Firefox behave when you start it with "--safe-mode", with a new profile, or even from a newly created user account in which everything is default? Is there anything unusual in the log files? ~/.xsession-errors, journalctl, ... Regards, Ralf

Right getting there it would seem that ALTHOU i am a Premium Customer on youtube they do not like the presence of AD Plus this is being raised with them not going to pay premium and put up with their stinking Ad's **&^%^$$% Cheers Pete I will report any news
Use μblock Origin instead. It blocks YouTube ads effectively and also consumes way less resources. -- Cheers, Aᴀʀᴏɴ
