A very odd problem! On startup, firefox and thunderbird both produce the messages /home/jsmith/.gtkrc-2.0:2: Unable to find include file: ".gtkrc-2.0-scrollbar_cog" (Gecko:7801): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type `GConfClient' (Gecko:7801): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_new: assertion `G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed (Gecko:7801): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed Segmentation fault (core dumped) On the other hand, epiphany and mozilla both work perfectly! After deleting the .mozilla/firefox directory, firefox works ONCE (i.e., it works, but every time afterwards, it crashes). It's as if it can't tolerate the existence of a .mozilla/firefox directory or can't read or parse it. uname -a FreeBSD vorpal.math.drexel.edu 6.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE #0: Wed Oct 11 11:09:36 EDT 2006 jsmith@vorpal.math.drexel.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 This problem first appeared after upgrading Gnome to 2.16. Oddly, another computer seemingly configured exactly the same doesn't have this problem.
