Wilko Bulte:
|I'm running Netscape 4 on my 2.2.5R box. Every now and then it refuses to
|start properly. It just loops, consuming CPU.
|
| 979 netscape.bin CALL gettimeofday(0xefbfa4f0,0)
| 979 netscape.bin RET gettimeofday 0
| 979 netscape.bin CALL sigreturn(0xefbfa5b8)
| 979 netscape.bin RET sigreturn JUSTRETURN
| 979 netscape.bin PSIG SIGALRM caught handler=0x76cdf8 mask=0x0 code=0x0
...
|
|This repeats forever. FWIW this happens both with and without the ISDN/ppp
|link to the Internet.
Ollivier Robert:
|export XCMSDB; XCMSDB=/dev/null
garman@earthling.net:
|More simply, every time this happened to me, I found that removing the line:
|
|user_pref("browser.startup.license_accepted", "1000 4.04");
FWIW I do both of these and still get this SIGALRM loop every so often.
Seem to help but they doen't cure it.
(I wonder if running Linux Netscape under emulation works better)
