[arch-general] Browsers crashing
Hi, On my Arch Linux x32 system most (all) browser regularly crash. I have tried Firefox, Midori, Xombrero. For instance for Xombrero journalctl shows: systemd-coredump[6615]: Process 6478 (xombrero) of user 1002 dumped core. Stack trace of thread 6478: #0 0x00000000b4d0be50 n/a (libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0.so.0) #1 0x00000000a7b8e842 n/a (n/a) Midori behaves similarly. It happens on sites with many scripts and pictures when scrolling down. Firefox crashes at startup. It first displays its own start page, processor load goes to 100% and then firefox disappears leaving a core dump. Do others experience this too? Harm-Jan Zwinderman

No me, Is your system up to date? Also if all are crashing with the same trace (javascriptcore library) that looks like ABI incompatibility. Which usually happens when you don't upgrade the whole system. Regards, -- Demelier David

Yes I think my system is up to date. I do a pacman -Syu once a week. Though for Midori as Xombrero both crash with the same trace to the libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0.so.0 library (version 16.19). Regards, Harm-Jan

Maybe a wayland related problem? I had to switch to Xorg because Wayland gives me a lot of problems. -- Óscar García Amor | ogarcia at moire.org | http://ogarcia.me

Does your processor support SSE2? It's required for WebKit's JavaScript compiler. If you're missing it, browsers will crash with SIGILL.

You could also boot with the current live image and launch memtest from there. When using memtest, best practice is to test each RAM chip alone (i.e. remove the other ones) and let memtest run several (4-8) passes for each chip. Regards, mearon -- Merlin Büge <toni@bluenox07.de>

This is your problem. From my experience sites that have illformed javascript do not work well with Intel graphics controllers. Check out the Forums and the Wiki for clues on how to overcome these problems. Regards John

On second thought, maybe microcode might help https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Microcode

I installed intel-ucode microcode and tried again but after a reboot still the same. I did run memtest 86 but that didn't report any error.

Yesno, on LAU [1] somebody posted a link and when opening it with Firefox, I need to use the reset button of my PC, since it leads to a black screen and an unresponsive computer. I tried it two times. Apart from this, I seldom visit obscure websites, so no, usually my browsers run absolutely stable. Sure, some websites visited with Firefox, IceCat and other Mozillaoids slow down and even could slow down the complete graphical user session. This doesn't happen when using webkit based browsers, e.g. QupZilla. IOW it might be related to the websites you're visiting, consider to post a few links.

With Midori visiting for instance www.cnn.com shows that behaviour quite soon. After accepting the cookie message I start to scroll down with my mouse wheel. Midori is still in the proces of loading the complete site but displays already the top part of the page. Scrolling down and then the browser crashes. Regards, Harm-Jan

I have tried Firefox, Midori, Xombrero.
For instance for Xombrero journalctl shows:
systemd-coredump[6615]: Process 6478 (xombrero) of user 1002 dumped core.
Just a wild guess, but perhaps it's time for a memory test? Since this is happening with multiple programs, I doubt it's software related. Memtest 86 usually works great. Mvg, Guus
