Running it produces a segmentation fault, running mozilla-bin even creates a core file. I looked at it, and seems that perhaps the stack was mutilated, since I didn't see anything unusual there (I can post it later, if anyone is interested). Now, at home I'm running mozilla which I've compiled under 4.1-STABLE and I'm runnning 4.2-RELEASE, so, since no patches to mozilla port were added since then, I guess that it's something wrong either with the compiler or linker (or both). Like I said, I run old binary under 4.2-RELEASE, and it works ok, so the run-time environment is ok (libc_r, etc.). Did anyone notice this misbehavior? Does it have something to do with the "mysql coredumps" thread we've seen here? Should I try the patch obrien posted? Ideas? P.S. The only other difference is that at home I use XFree86-4 and there it was XFree86-3.3.6 which came with the distribution, however, the failure was in the mozilla internal function(s), so I doubt that it's relevant. --Roman Shterenzon, UNIX System Administrator and Consultant [ Xpert UNIX Systems Ltd., Herzlia, Israel.
