<div dir="ltr">Sorry for being a bit delayed. I hope my message will clarify few things. <br><br>about:crashes would aggregate your crash information as soon as you report them to Mozilla. Some Linux distributions are compiling Firefox without the crash reporter, in order to make the software more similar to their other applications and use the distribution crash reporter instead, so you'll report your crashes to them instead of the software developers team. I have wrote about this issue in my blog - <a href="http://tomercohen.com/2009/02/27/?p=537">http://tomercohen.com/2009/02/27/?p=537</a><br>
<br>In order to solve your issue, please download Firefox binaries directly from Mozilla and run it instead of your distro Firefox. Than, when Firefox will crash (in case it will), you'll prompted to report your crash to Mozilla and than you will be able to review your information in about:crashes. <br>
<br>Beside this, I am almost sure your crash isn't because of Firefox but Flash. Adobe Flash Player is very unstable application in Linux, and sometimes crash the browser or more dangerous stuff.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Ever since upgraging from Firefox 2.* to 3.0.7, the browser randomly but<br>
FREQUENTLY closes for no **apparent** reason. Unfortunatly, about:crashes<br>
doesn't seem to work on Linux, so I have no idea where to look for the<br>
reason. I've looked at all the usual logs and ~/.mozilla/* and found nothing.<br>
Is there a Firefox specific log I should be looking at?<br>
<br>
To clarify one point, the browser is always open on my machine, but often (2<br>
or 3 times a day), when I come back to the computer, Firefox has closed. So<br>
it's not happening when I try to get to a particular site, but when the<br>
browser is "idle". In fact, I don't rememmber ever having a crash when trying<br>
to load a site.<br>
