Subject: Re: hung moz
Is mozilla eating up all your cpu cycles too? On occaision I've seen
mozilla do this, it just goes belly up and starts eating up all the
CPU. Usually when that happens I take the extreme brute force
approach:

$ kill -9 $mozilla-bin-pid

Or is that a little too drastic? ;)

I've had to resort to this a little more frequently than I would like.
However, I'm not convinced the problem is mozilla. Sometimes it
seems that X gets itself into a snit (although I think mozilla tickles
the bug), and I think it may very well be the nvidia drivers. I've
found that while the closed source drivers from nvidia are much
faster, the opensource non-3d accel. opensource drivers tend to be a
lot more stable.
