Hi, As said in the pkg-message : - FreeBSD version : FreeBSD mulet.clope.net 5.2.1-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p1 #0: Sun Mar 7 00:07:38 CET 2004 root@mulet.clope.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MULET_KERNEL i386 - timestamp of the www/firefox/Makefile : Feb 19 13:11 Makefile - Problem : Firefox don't start. I installed it via the ports, i simply did a portupgrade -RraP after cvsup the ports tree. After that, when i'm trying to launch firefox, the process firefox-bin runs with 85% of cpu load... nothing appear, no window for browsing. So i tried to come back to mozilla-firebird, i re-installed it with the package, but anyway it's now doing the same thing than firefox. It seems to be a problem that appear with dependancies during my portupgrade -RraP. I wanted a browser.. so i installed mozilla classic, i didn't want to spend time with compilation, so i installed the pacakge : mozilla-gtk2-1.6.a.tbz, and i did the same thing... I became nervous... and tried with no gtk2 : mozilla-1.6.a,1.tbz and it works ! So, seems to be a problem with the GTK2 library. I discovered that my GTK1 and 2 failed to upgrade due to a configure error, i tried to force the install, in fact, glib wasn't up to date, I fixed it and reinstalled Firefox, but the same problem persists (for firebird still the same problem). I Don't really understand from where it's coming, I hope this report can help you for debugging Firefox. I believe that the portupgrade -RraP did something bad with a dependancie of fire* Here is my version of GTK1 and 2: x11-toolkits/gtk12 (gtk-1.2.10_11) x11-toolkits/gtk20 (gtk-2.2.4_2) Bye. -- Alexandre Ahmim-Richard passe@clope.net http://www.u-admin.org
