I installed FF50 on... Mint 13 kde (1,7mhz laptop),... Mint 16 kde (2,2mhz pc and 2core2,4 mhz laptop)... and kubuntu 14 kde allso on the 2core laptop. They all had a fresh distro.... My Mint 17 kde (2core 2,4mhz pc) is still running FF49.

I updated the standard FF's for syncing with my other Linux mint 17 and mint 13 kde with FF49, computers. These works fine, using FF sinds 1999. I started to use linux sinds 2003, ended windows xp 2 years ago. So linux is not unfamiliar to me. (data recovery win, bash, finding solutions online)

At startup it gives an error screen. I just reinstalled FF50 on the mint 16 (2core) to send you the logfile. i mentioned my email , date, and question title. I dont feel like fiddeling with cache cleaning, setting, savemode from cl bash and more, to get ff50 working. I am open to helping when possible. I switched to chromium for a functional browser. Most addons i used on ff work. I hope you can find a solution for this big bug and i can come back some day. I hope you can share the solution, cant imagine i am the only one.

kind regards

To be clear, you installed Firefox 50 on a Linux ?

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box below and paste them in.

(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
