User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:39.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/39.0
Build ID: 20150806191835
Steps to reproduce:
This bug happens on all websites, but more complicated ones seem to trigger it more often. Facebook is a notable source of problems.
Actual results:
Firefox version 39.0.3
64-bit Ubuntu 15.04, Processor: AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T Processor × 6, Graphics: Gallium 0.4 on AMD PITCAIRN
Firefox crashes frequently (usually every 5-10 minutes, but it varies a lot: sometimes every minute, sometimes only once an hour). This doesn't seem limited to Firefox (though Firefox may be triggering it in unique ways); every browser I've tried so far has crashed eventually: Chrome, Qupzilla, and the Ubuntu web browser from the webbrowser-app package.
This bug has existed since I installed Ubuntu.
Alternative graphics drivers have no effect. I've tried the fglrx package and AMD's fglrx beta drivers, both with and without updates. I have also tried 32-bit versions to no effect.
Problem does not occur running Windows on the same computer.
Sorry if I haven't filled this out correctly, it's my first time filing a bug report. This has been a serious pain.

Thanks for getting through bugzilla and reporting this issue!
Please comment with the crash report URL: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_for_a_bug_report#How_to_get_a_crash_ID_with_the_Mozilla_Crash_Reporter - the file you attached is not a full crash report. Why do you say the crashes are driver-related?

I believe we just unconditionally add some information about the graphics on your system to each crash report (to help troubleshooting the crashes that *are* driver-related):
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/annotate/2ddfc9180971/widget/GfxInfoX11.cpp#l189
The crashes you listed do not seem to implicate graphics in any way. Of the 5 crashes you posted,
* 3 are from a nightly build:
** bp-9ccd4cf6-58eb-4d9d-831e-987f32150815 [@ void DoMarking<T>(js::GCMarker*, js::jit::JitCode*) ] in GC
** bp-f911650a-a92a-4adc-b8da-6eb462150815 [@ libuuid.so.1.3.0@0x8957c ] inside EnterBaseline
** bp-e7bc30a6-4866-43bb-916a-d4a9a2150815 [@ EnterBaseline ] (content process)
* 2 are from v40.0:
** bp-ef7a6176-7d3b-4a9f-b353-299122150815 [@ js::num_toString ] (failed to unwind the stack)
** bp-05338802-c275-4fde-9c0b-e0c102150814 [@ EnterBaseline ]
Unfortunately, as far as I can see, none of the crash reports point to the source of the problem. EnterBaseline, in particular, is the generic signature for crashes inside the JIT-compiled code (cf. bug 858032), and GC crashes are usually caused by the problems not captured in the stack trace.
I see from the crash reports that you don't have extensions installed, but just to make sure -- does the problem reproduce in a new profile <https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles> with all the plugins disabled?
Also, since you mention general instability, I would guess there might be a problem with HW (but you say Windows on the same computer runs fine...) or with the system (can you reproduce with a stock install of Ubuntu? Do you run it via dual-booting or inside a VM?)

I'm so sorry for the very late response. It's been a very long and unusual week. I'll do everything I can to respond faster in the future.
Firefox on Windows does crash but far less frequently, maybe once every few days. Sorry for being misleading about that.
Those crash reports are from a nightly build because I downloaded a nightly build so it would have debug symbols. I will reproduce the bug on whatever version/build you like, just post a link. It doesn't seem to make a difference from a user perspective what version I run, they're all equally affected.
I dual boot Windows and Linux. I tested it on a clean Ubuntu install and on a live USB—the bug still behaved exactly the same.
Crash reports from live USB (nightly build):
bp-06d8d9f1-9345-4dff-b27f-c0e872150822
bp-b4ea764e-bebc-43b9-b2ec-dfc8b2150822
bp-084d60c6-f889-4b75-ad1b-f4e5b2150822
bp-0f018f89-b434-4b53-89d5-4f1f32150822
Crash reports from a clean Ubuntu install:
bp-3011b737-95f0-473a-bc70-ae2472150821
bp-a9b9b994-7dd2-43ec-8451-705052150821
bp-ef8eb8e9-0fe5-418d-b723-9f0e62150821
Crash reports from Windows (these don't have symbols because they're old. I'm running a nightly build as my default browser now but it doesn't crash very often, I will post a crash report if it does. Sorry if they aren't very helpful. At the very least it's a demonstration that it isn't just Linux):

Sorry, I'm out of ideas. Perhaps someone else will see something I don't, but to me this does look like a system-level (hardware?) problem.
I'd start by running hardware-level diagnostics (memtest and so on), but I haven't done that in a long time, so I won't be able to help with more specific suggestions.

Oh well, thanks for your time all the same!
I ran memtest last week and all results were normal but I'll see if I can find some other hardware tests.

¡Hola Thomas!
Is this still a problem?
If so, do you happen to have more precise steps to reproduce the crash now?
Else, please mark this RESOLVED WORKSFORME in Status at the bottom of
¡Gracias!
