(Get the code!)
This actually also happens when opening links from other programs (e.g. click link in Thunderbird). It doesn't seem to happen within Firefox itself, so possibly to do with the tray animation or redrawing fullscreen?
I answered that it happens a couple of times per week, but realistically this happens several times per day - I avoid it by keeping Firefox open for days at a time.
I have tried the updated fglrx driver. It appears to fail to install (known bug #873058) but I still end up with:
ii fglrx-updates 2:8.911-0ubuntu0.1
However, CCC reports 11.8 and the crashes still occur.
Crashes perhaps sometimes manifest as Xorg restarts (as if Ctrl-Alt-Backspace was pressed) - I get both hard lockups (more common) and X restarts under similar circumstances.
