The firebug font is way too small to read and I cannot find the means to increase it (the increase text size in the drop evidental refers to the text size of the subject tab, not the firebug interface. Nothing at all seems to be in the Net tab, however, it is not clear this is active when the subject page is loaded. Firebug crashes firefox repeatedly when the subject page is reloaded or when firebug offers to reload the page itself. > Is it waiting for > apparently no reason at a particular place? The first page after login (twitter "Home") always stops in the same place -- after it draws the tweet box in the left column (but leaves the tweet box non-functional). Some of drop-downs on the top bar work, but others do not drop down. Links in tweets do not open in new tabs (as they usually do) and if they link to twitter pics, those pages will not fully load. Using the reload link in the "slow loading" message will (at first) reload pages which generally stop in the same place, but repeated reloading eventually leads to nothing but the background showing up. > Also, not strictly required, > but can you also pass the traffic through something like LiveHTTPHeaders > and post a traffic dump?

Could you check on that? My understanding from reading the xwin list and others is that the intel driver is in some aspects broken for x. -- Lars Eighner http://www.larseighner.com/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266
