Been using this a lot - a really useable browser now! Nothing like a fully modded desktop browser in the palm of your hand!
Secure Connection Failed
An error occured during a connection to www.google.com
security library: memory allocation failure.
(Error code: sec_error_no_memory).
Nothing! This has started happening to me - it didn't at first, so something somewhere has changed.Firefox 5.0 work almost flawlesly, but i encountered this nasty error:
Code:Secure Connection Failed An error occured during a connection to www.google.com security library: memory allocation failure. (Error code: sec_error_no_memory).
I tried to reflash firmware to avoid wrong Firefox setup. But it didn't work and everytime i try to login to my gmail i end up with this error.
Chromium works just fine.
Any ideas what i messed up? :-D
Use a spare SD card and slaeshjag's swap tools utility.
Have a look at the kernel log ("dmesg" in a terminal) - not shure if the OOM killer is active in the pandora kernel, but it should tell you when it kills a process. Don't know where you would find Firefox's message when it can't allocate any memory, except if you start it from a terminal.Also it can't be out of memory, since it happens with no other apps open and only one tab open - google (I use google chat to talk to one friend). Weirdly enough, it seems more prone to crashing when I just leave it doing nothing, or when I have only one tab open and I'm using google chat. If I have two tabs open, one on google chat and one on any other site, it doesn't crash as much as if I have JUST google on...
Today's ads are heavily relying on JavaScript, using NoScript is often already sufficient for a nice browsing experience. It might not be as efficient as AdBlock and it needs more user interaction, but as it's usually working with very small whitelists instead of huge blacklists it surely needs only very few RAM.I have no clue how using swap, but now I know why Firefox is so slow. I use Adblock, I never thought that this little plugin needs so much RAM. :unsure: Is ther a way to fix this without Swap? I need adblock, no way to surf without so it would be nice to keep this addon.
I just downloaded Firefox 5 from repo.openpandora.org this morning, and at first it seemed OK but then it just crashes a LOT, at random times. Sometimes it'll freeze for a few seconds then crash, sometimes it freezes for a few minutes and in that time nothing works - the start menu won't respond and the task manager doesn't appear. (...) I have to hard rest using the Pandora button and the power switch.
Is this happening to anyone else? It even crashed once half way through this post.

I've been using Firefox 4b10 for ages, with HF4 on my Pandora Nand, and it ran well with the odd crash. The behaviour you're describing has started happening frequently (with the same SD card with Firefox 4) for me when I'm running HF6a4 from the other SD slot instead.
i am also using firefox 4b10, it feels more stable.
Would this out of ram workaround improve video playback content?
Thanks
