    I gave up on Google's browser long ago because of stuff like this. Firefox has numerous faults but it's still the best out there right now.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Huh ??? I'm using Fedora 19 (64 bit) and Firefox, Opera, and Chrome all work great. I mostly use Opera but Firefox also runs great on F19. Did you try running strace or running it under gdb to get some info as to why it balks.

    P.S. I presume you built chromium from source ? Did you have any issues during the build ?

    got chromium from repo......as for the firefox problem no matter what I do to try and track the issue, as soon as FF is "clicked" to run screen pixalates, hard lockup nothing gets saved. i just gave up on FF and moved to other things.

    test with opera

    opera spaces correctly, so its a chromium issue.

    It's strange though. Just curious is it running on a 64 but system or an older 32 bit system and is the Fedora version FC19-64 or FC19-32 ? I tried but I can't seem to recreate the problem here.

    Chromium or Google Chrome? They are two separate products, and it would be helpful to know.
