Hey goldphnx,
I tried reproducing this issue on the latest version of Nightly 91.0a1 (2021-06-13), beta 90.0b7 and release 89.0 but I get no crashes.

Did you try reinstalling it and see if that fixes the issue?
If possible, you can test this issue on the nightly build as well. Download the build from : https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/nightly/all/ .

Hi Andrei,
Thanks for responding. Yes, I tried uninstalling, shutting down and reinstalling after a reboot. The only thing that worked was to reinstall version 75 from the ubuntu repository. Version 89 will not work for me.

I tried the nightly build and that is working.

Aside from the nightly build, version 89 had not worked, but 89.0.1 has me back up and running on my system.

Since this issue already has a component assigned the dev team are aware and hopefully will come up with a fix.
