Greetings,
Following a recent Ubuntu update from 20.04 to 22.04, Firefox 129.0.2 has started spamming my syslog with messages like:
[Parent 39719, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: process 262891 is a zombie: file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_posix.cc:245
These seem harmless, but I'd like to identify a way to suppress the warnings, because they're mucking up my syslog. Is there a setting in about:config that would do that? I see lots of log-related settings there set to Warn, but have no idea which one could silence the warnings I'm seeing. Any tips or suggestions are much appreciated!

Firefox is adding empty lines to the css file in web developer like so:
left: 0; z-index: 3; width: 250px; height: 40px; opacity: 0; cursor: pointer;
}
height: 40px; width: 250px; z-index: 3; opacity: 0; cursor: pointer;
}
.previewVid {
width: 50%; padding: 10px;
}
Those empty lines are not in the css file and so it is reporting the wrong line numbers. So hard to find the correct line in the actual file.

Up until a few weeks ago, I could see and access Mobile Bookmarks (I sync these to my Firefox Desktop) using the Firefox Desktop browser from the Bookmarks drop-down menu in the topmost toolbar.
Now, I can no longer find Mobile Bookmarks in the Bookmarks drop-down menu.
I can still find it by choosing Manage Bookmarks and, in the resulting pop-up, I can see it in its regular location there. However, this is significantly less convenient as it requires me to juggle another window and perform more clicks.
Is it missing due to a bug? Does Mozilla intend to fix/address this?
Thank you in advance for any help.

When I copy something to my clipboard I can paste it into Firefox. Into web pages and also into the URL bar.
But when I copy something in Firefox, it does not go to the clipboard. The clipboard still hast the content which was already there.
Also strange: When I cut text in a textarea, input element or the URL bar, the text is removed. But it is not sent to the clipboard. When I cut and paste, the text I get is what was previously in the clipboard.
What could be the cause? How can I debug this problem?

Any advice returned by Google seems to be obsolete or only worked perhaps in older versions of Firefox. The main idea of using userChrome.css to override the default styles for Reader View does not seem to work. My userChrome.css file does work on other items though (like removing the sidebar width restriction).
Whatever advice I find via Google perhaps cites outdated CSS selectors, but current selectors do not seem to be documented anywhere by Mozilla. Moreover, I cannot find any file on my local drive named aboutReader.css when using find or grep commands in bash, those this file name is alluded to when viewing a page in Reader View and then in turn viewing source on that transformed page.
Moreover, addons that would allow me to change the colors seem to be restricted in Reader View.
It does seem like something has changed in recent Firefox updates but I can't remember when I last saw, for instance, links in dark mode Reader View that were still pink (whereas now they are blue, and impossibly dark to see, especially when you are disabling as much blue light as possible through your operating system). I need a higher contrast color for links in dark mode Reader View so I can actually see them.
I can alternatively use the Tranquility Reader addon and have custom colors, but A) that addon does not work with the Automatic Reader View addon, whereby I can always have various sites appear in some sort of "reader view" whether the native one or Tranquility Reader, and B) hitting refresh when in Reader View will defeat some soft paywalls but this does not work with, e.g., Tranquility Reader, so I still would prefer to be able to custom colors in the native Reader View feature, rather than rely on an addon.
1. Where are the current styles for Reader View even documented? 2. Is overriding them now restricted? 3. Why did the link color change from pink to blue in newer versions of Firefox (this is a terrible accessibility bug)? 4 .Where is the alluded to aboutReader.css stylesheet actually stored on my computer (it doesn't seem to be a file on the filesystem in the Firefox profiles folder, it seems more like it is embedded in the Firefox binary/executable)? 5. Will Firefox settings ever allow us to set colors specifically for Reader View (I don't mean the override settings for all web pages, particularly web pages not being rendered in Reader View ... that setting does not help in Reader View, nor would it be the desired preference for pages not in Reader View)?
Thank you.

I seem to have a problem with Firefox's builtin PDF viewer. Instead of black text on a white or gray background or something else sensible, I get black text floating over my desktop background in the part of the Firefox window that's showing a PDF. PDFs display fine in an external viewer, but that's just passing the buck, isn't it? Is there a way to fix this on Firefox?
I suspect hardware acceleration is the issue, but everything else seems fine, so I don't want to just blanket disable hardware acceleration. How can acceleration for PDFs alone be disabled?

I have used firefox for quiet many years now, but recently after the update, it i sucking in a lot of resources, I am not sure what the problem is but the cpu engagement of all the 4 cores are getting to 50 percent and longer uses are making it go as high as 95 percent. So, I have already done the following,
The outcome is that I have came to know that there is some problem in either the upgrade process or the new version. THIS IS HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING. Please provided instructions on how to fix it, or should I open a issue in bugzilla, I can not understand what is the problem? please ask for an other information if required.

Any solution?

Hello,
I'm experiencing an issue with the search bar on the Firefox homepage. When I click into the search field and begin typing, the cursor jumps to the address bar, and the text I’m entering gets redirected there instead of staying in the search bar.
I've checked my search settings, and everything seems to be in order. I’ve also tried disabling add-ons, but the issue persists. Could you please assist me in resolving this problem?
Thank you for your help.
Best regards, Tivadar Tot
What do I have to do: Firefox enables fields only with ALT-Shift f. I want to click on an field with my mouse for entering data. Thank you for help.

Hello guys, as in title - I use custom NextDNS set of rules on DNS-over-HTTPS. As of today, Firefox can't connect to the provider. AFAIK Troubleshoot Mode is also affected. The other devices using NextDNS on my network work just fine and when I set the DNS to work system-wide as a kind of workaround, I don't get an issue. Same when I use other DNS-over-HTTPS options in the Firefox Preferences. Yesterday the problem didn't occur and I haven't performed any updates since yesterday - both Firefox and NetworkManager seem to be up to date.
Additional info: OS: EndeavourOS (Arch Linux) Firefox version: 129.0.2
If any other info is needed, I'll be happy to provide it to you.

Hi. I got a new laptop some weeks ago (Linux Fedora) and I've been using Firefox without any problems until last week. When watching Youtube videos my system shell crashes completely. This problem ONLY happens with Youtube videos and Firefox. Other browsers work fine and I don't have this problem in other websites.

Firefox 129.0.2 (64-bit) Mozilla Firefox Snap for Ubuntu canonical-002 - 1.0
Running on kubuntu Linux 24.04, kernel version 6.8.0-41-generic (64-bit) KDE Plasma Version 5.27.11 Qt Version 5.15.13
I've posted a description of my problem on the kubuntu forums: https://www.kubuntuforums.net/forum/newbie-support/help-the-new-guy/681835-firefox-eating-up-a-lot-of-cpu
Here is a synopsis of my posts on that thread to distill the most noteworthy symptoms:
I have snap Firefox installed.
$ snap list Name Version Rev Tracking Publisher Notes bare 1.0 5 latest/stable canonical✓ base core22 20240731 1564 latest/stable canonical✓ base firefox 129.0.2-1 4793 latest/stable mozilla✓ - firmware-updater 0+git.5007558 127 latest/stable/… canonical✓ - gnome-42-2204 0+git.510a601 176 latest/stable/… canonical✓ - gtk-common-themes 0.1-81-g442e511 1535 latest/stable/… canonical✓ - snapd 2.63 21759 latest/stable canonical✓ snapd thunderbird 128.1.0esr-1 507 latest/stable/… canonical✓ - $
If I start firefox from the shell command line, it runs fine. It runs the shell script in /usr/bin/firefox, which ultimately executes /snap/bin/firefox. Clearly that shell script is doing some configuration that I don't understand.
If I hit Alt-space I see the menu in the referenced screen grab (see attached).
If I select the first entry, to run firefox from the command line, it has the same effect as starting /usr/bin/firefox from a bash shell; it works fine. However, if I select the third entry, firefox does not play any video; I've mostly tested with YouTube videos that have actual video and audio.
I'm not sure what gets executed when I select the third option from the Alt-space menu. It appears from doing a "ps -ef" that it's the same /snap/firefox/... executable. But I'm wondering why is this entry in the Alt-space menu and how does it get initialized or 'configured' to run.
Additionally, if I do start firefox from the entry with the firefox browser icon, and it fails to play video, I must then uninstall firefox using snap and then reinstall in order to get video playback to work. That is, after a failed start, simply exiting firefox and restarting it from the shell command line will not work; firefox will not play video correctly at all.
I also noticed that on my PC desktop, "snap list" lists firefox as "firefox 129.0.2-1 4793 latest/stable mozilla✓ -"
But on my old Lenova laptop running the same kubuntu version, "snap list" lists firefox as "firefox 129.0.2-1 4757 latest/stable mozilla✓ -"
I'm up to date on both systems via "sudo apt update"' and "sudo apt upgrade"
Even more frustrating, today, for the first time, despite starting firefox from the command line, video still didn't play. I had to uninstall firefox and reinstall it.
