10.04 upgrade from 8.04 firefox issues and other user settings

[Nick Fenger]

Nicolas,

I am also having firefox and chrome crashes on 10.04 (fatclent image). In
chrome, the flash plugin crashes often as well. I removed all of my user's
hidden files and this did not correct the problem. I am noticing that swap
goes to 100% and does not drop when I close programs. Only a reboot of the
client seems to reset the swap fully.
