1. Before downloading FF, open thunar, the file manager.
2. Hit Ctrl + h to show the hidden files.
3. Locate the .mozilla folder.
4. Select it and rename it to something like .mozilla.old
5. Launch Firefox from terminal.
What this will do is launch FF anew; no profile, and will create a new .mozilla folder. So, in theory, if something's wrong with your FF's profile, you shouldn't get any errors. In short, this procedure is to check that your FF's profile isn't corrupted or something, and if you don't get any errors, you could delete .mozilla.old. If you do get the same behavior, the download FF and proceed as explained above.
I finally had time to try this (1-5, that is). I thought it had worked but after a bit the system froze again. And I am not sure if it is Firefox or not. When it happens it is usually associated with a mouse click or movement. All of a sudden it just freezes.
IT'S MADDENING... :banghead
