Gmail / Firefox playing up?

The 'Google apps' status page reckons all is well, but here Gmail won't get past the 'loading' bar getting very nearly but not quite to the end.

Firefox 3.0.11 on Ubuntu 9.04 - it's OK on Win XP x64.

No problems on my Gmail accounts in the last few minutes - do you maybe have any lab features enabled? You can try turning them off, http://mail.google.com/mail/?labs=0

I get this periodically, often if I've been playing with multiple accounts on multiple machines at the same time. Killing the broswer entirely usually sorts it out.

Yep, that did it. Interestingly, it was affecting another completely unconnected page as well, one which the other machine had never even heard off, never mind viewed.

Hmm, it affects both the x64 version here and the 32 bit version on the Eee...

Interestly, it's not painting the screen for one page currently open in a tab (all the critical bugs for the Moonlight clone of MS's Silverlight plugin - typical bug: crashes browser every time) and I wonder if this is what's happening with Gmail.

Let's try restarting the browser.
