Sorry for the late attachment of the crash report - launchpad proxy was timing out when I tried to send it.

Is that report enough or do you want me to do more?

Thanks

Have you installed firefox-dbg? In the crash report there are a lot of 'no debug found'. The command is:

sudo apt-get install firefox-dbg

Thanks

Success! (If you can call it that)

Googled 'map'

Opened multimap.com, streetmap.co.uk maps.google.com in new tabs, started searching for the same location in each.

I was able to start the search in the first two and switch to the google tab, but couldn't enter anything into tat one. Firefox frozen.

I hope that this is of some use

Nick
