Hi,
since few weeks now, when i come back from suspend-mode (i close the laptop), everything works fine EXCEPT firefox which takes 100% CPU and doesn't respond. So i have to kill it and restart it again to make it works (it load previous session).
It is a bit annoying, am i the only one to have this problem.
I m on plasma desktop.
Thanks
Sincerely

Hello,
which extensions do you use with firefox ?
you could try with a new firefox profile (without extensions) : "firefox -p"

you can try to run firefox inside a console, in order to have a log,
then when firefox crashes you can check on the console if there are interesting error messages,
you can try also to disable graphic acceleration in firefox :
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ha … inds-crash
if the bug disapears after disabling graphic acceleration then it could be a problem from the graphic driver (provided by the linux kernel if it's not a proprietary driver) or the mesa package, downgrading these packages to previous versions can help to find the culprit,
try also linux lts kernel

Sorry my fault, it crashes not the usually way, it only takes 100% CPU and doesn't respond anymore. I don't use Hardware acceleration and there is no message on terminal.

do you have the same problem with other browsers like Chromium, Opera ?
you can try also the official binary of firefox (if the archlinux version of firefox has a bug, bad options for the compilation):
https://www.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/new/
unzip the file in your home directory, then run the firefox binary ("./firefox", to be sure that you don't run the archlinux version of firefox located in /usr/bin ),
last test : connect to plasma-kde with a new user account, in order to see if there is some cache effect in plasma, a bad configuration in your plasma profile, which triggers a bug for firefox
