I am able to hit it ok...

% pacman -Qs flashplugin        
local/flashplugin 11.2.202.280-1
    Adobe Flash Player

% pacman -Qs firefox           
local/firefox 20.0.1-1
    Standalone web browser from mozilla.org

Do you have an nvidia card?

I also have trouble with firefox crashing since the update earlier today (on multiple websites, when opening a pdf, ...).
Firefox crashes with:

[warddr@X200-arch ~]$ firefox
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

EDIT:
Linux X200-arch 3.8.6-1-ARCH
Intel GMA 4500MHD Dynamic Video Memory Technology 5.0

Same here. Removing the user profile from ~/.mozilla/firefox and making a new one does not resolve the problem. Reinstalling the package doesn't help.

It crashes constantly on opening Facebook or any other site. Strange, it does not crash while using the forums.

max@snorlax ~ :( $ firefox
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

EDIT: ATI Radeon X1600 GPU w/ 256 MiB RAM, 32-bit Arch, up-to-date.
Removing the Flash plugin does NOT help.

(You replied fast! Sorry for deleting my post, I decided to first test locally a bit.)

Ditto when trying to read the issues on the following url, which ironically concerns Firefox 20 breaking the sqlite manager plugin.

It seems that the crash happen just when the javascript option is enable

bjornoslav · 2013-04-11 23:41:30

Correct. With JavaScript disabled, Firefox doesn't crash anymore.

felipense · 2013-04-12 00:23:31

I could visit facebook ,www.cnn.com/video/. and open pdf files but i have gnash plugin.

edit: without js you can't play flash videos (;p) so its flashpluggin is the trouble. Try with gnash.

Are you on i686 or x86_64? It seem that the problem is only on i686.

I'm on i686, Firefox crashes with plugins blocked.

felipense · 2013-04-12 00:48:42

im in x86_64.

edit: it a i686 trouble. I tested flashpluggin and works fine.

Or install and use NoScript. Prevents the crash while allowing for some sites to remain operational.

Confirming the bug.

I have the same problem on i686 with firefox.

[brian@Trinity ~]$ firefox

Just a "me too"

i686
AMD 5470 using xf86-video-ati (so it's not an Nvidia or graphics issue)
Crashes pretty much immediately on trying to interact with Facebook.

olive · 2013-04-12 10:20:45

Same here (with i696) with, for example gmail.com. The official build available from mozilla does not crash, so it appears to be an archlinux bug.

Gordon · 2013-04-12 11:02:45

"me too"
Firefox and chromium crash yet midori did not. (thats what I am using now to get to the forum)
Have nvidia with latest kernel and drivers. - The mms.cfg fix did not help.
Downgraded firefox.
