Afterwars, the box is only accessable via ssh. Unfortunately i wasn't able to find anything in the logs that clarifies what has happened. Upgrading to mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.3 solved this problem for me. I've been told that this bug does not affect xorg-x11-7.0.x.

Well, the relevant page seems to have been cancelled, but when I tried it last night there was no problem. An important difference may be that I have almost no plugins installed, resulting in the "missing plugins" bar. mozilla-firefox-1.0.8 [ -debug -gnome -ipv6 -java -mozcalendar -mozdevelop -moznoxft -mozsvg +truetype -xinerama -xprint ] xorg-x11-6.8.2-r7 [ -3dfx +3dnow +bitmap-fonts -cjk -debug +dlloader -dmx -doc -font-server -insecure-drivers -ipv6 -minimal +mmx +nls -nocxx +opengl +pam -sdk +sse -static +truetype-fonts +type1-fonts (-uclibc) -xprint +xv ]
as the only page i know that may be used to reproduce this bug has been canceled, making any progress on this bug seems almost impossible. feel free to mark as (INVALID / NEEDINFO / CANTFIX). i'll reopen if i find a new testcase.

Created attachment 87650 [details] about:plugins this is about:plugins from the browser where i discovered the problem; note that i've upgraded to 1.5.0.3 in the meantime.
I seem to be the only one who can verify this bug so far.

Try this: export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 then run firefox from the same terminal.
Unfortunately the problem doesn't show up with the cached page. Exporting XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 doesn't make a difference.
Can you reproduce this with xorg >=7.0? Please reopen when you reply.
hmm, i can't try as the page has been removed; but when i first encountered this problem i asked someone with xorg-7.0 and firefox-1.0.8 to try the page on his box; he wasn't able to reproduce this error (i think firefox _only_ crashed). so i think that this is an xorg-6.8.x problem .... reopening as requested - feel free to close this bug again ... :-)
Alright, closing as fixed since 7.0 is stable.
