I think you must be doing something rather different (with firefox(/thunderbird)) than I do. (Well, I don't use thunderbird, so there's that.) But: I am not experiencing firefox crashes. /etc/hosts has: g1-70(12.3-S)[2] grep -v '^#' /etc/hosts ::1 localhost localhost.my.domain 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain g1-70(12.3-S)[3]=20 (and I don't mess with it: I use DNS for mapping hostnames to IP addresses; the machine in question is my laptop, which changes its IP address depending on what network it's using at the time). I use dhclient-exit-hooks to assign the hostname, given the IP address (if there's a PTR record I can access; if not, I leave it as "localhost"). (That said, I only change the hostname in /etc/dhclient-exit-hooks if xterm isn't running -- which I use as a proxy for "X11 is currently in use.") Thus, in the present case, the laptop's hostname is (still) g1-70.catwhisker.org -- which was assigned while the laptop & I were at home this morning, before xdm started up. The laptop has been on a couple of other networks since (currently at work), but since I was logged in, and I always have at least one xterm window, the hostname didn't change (though the IP address did). <shrug> Maybe what I'm doing is weird, but it seems to work for me.
