I'm not sure I understand your claim that it is UIM that is crashing.

*Only* Firefox crashes. I use UIM/Anthy to switch input methods when I type in Japanese. I use UIM/Anthy in every software package I have where I type in text, and Firefox is the only software that crashes on my system.

Further, not once has Firefox crashed when I have been inputting Japanese. It has only ever happened when I open and close pages.

In fact, for the times that I have been testing the Firefox build that you recommended I download straight from you instead of from the Ubuntu repositories, I have never even typed anything in, at all, ever. I would open it, surf to random web sites until it crashed, and that's it.

If your claim is that the mere presence of UIM on my system is enough to cause Firefox to crash, regardless of whether or not I am actually using it, then I suppose that might be the case, as that would be consistent with my experience.

However, since UIM has no other problem with any other software, I think that puts the onus on Firefox to show why it has a problem, not UIM.
