Firefox behaves strange after resume

[diver]

On my TP R60 i see the following after resume: The spinbutton (the one which circles when Firefox loads a page) behaves more than strange. It spins, stops, then spins very fast. And Firefox itself is not behaving as it does after a normal boot.

The rest of the System behaves ok, as i can compile, Chat via PSI, open PDF without problems.

Does restarting Firefox resolve the issue?

What are the results of the JavaScript testcase

which you posted elsewhere.

This appears to be a result of the known problem restarting the hires timer after suspend. I am looking into a satisfactory solution. Until then, the already known workarounds are available.

1. Don't suspend the system. Suspend and resume is unsupported at this time due to the known issues with it.

2. If you want to use suspend, then use SET NSPR_OS2_NO_HIRES_TIMER=1

@Steven no restarting Firefox does not help

@David i know the workarounds, but i wanted to let you know about the bug/feature.

Waiting for a response to the fix that was provided privately on 03-Sep-2013.

this test will probably take a bit longer, as i don't have the TP R60 anymore on a daily base. And on my TP 510 suspend works, but resume doesn't. I try to test it with the TP R60 when time permits.
