Why does right-click & "Open Link in New Tab" make the original tab name to change to "New Tab" when I back-arrow in the original tab to reach the original page

I use Google as my home page.

When I do a search in Google I have a practice of opening the search links in a new tab by right-clicking on the link and selecting "Open Link in New Tab". That way I can examine multiple links from the search page, which is now open in the first tab.

The problem that occurs is that when I use the back-arrow in the Navagation bar to return the first tab to its original page, I find the tab name of the original page to be "New Tab" rather than "Google" and I have to click on the "Reload current page" in the Navigation bar to return the tab name to "Google".

I'm using Firefox-25 on a Linux-Mint 64-bit platform with KDE-4.9.5.

The problem is just with the name of the tab, not with the contents of the page -- the page looks normal??

I ask about the page because Firefox 23 seems to have introduced a problem with Firefox's "fast back-forward cache" on the Google search results page. It is related to the "instant prediction results" feature interacting with Firefox is some different way. (More in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../970863?page=2#answer-485663)

Might be related. Not sure.

@jscher2000; Yes, the problem I see is just the name change on the tab. I see no other problems with the page.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

I did as you suggested and entered in a terminal: firefox -safe-mode. I still had the same problem in safe mode. I had a couple of outdated plugins, but I was unable to update them so I disabled them. After I disabled ALL of my extensions, plugins, & languages, I exited firefox and started it again in safe mode from the terminal. I again still had the same problem.

I'm beginning to think this is a bug in firefox.
