My firefox keeps crashing at startup. I changed the debugging=false option in /usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher to debugging=true I first tried the totem plugin. But I failed. It causes a SIGSEGV I also tried it with mplayerplug-in. I unmerged totem and merged mplayerplug-in. Same result I am using xorg 7 with ati-drivers-8.24 This is my emerge --info Portage 2.1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.4-r3, 2.6.16-gentoo-r7 i686)

Sorry for the multiple comments but I could not put it all in one comment. If there is anything that you can tell me that I can do to debug this further please do so, I would be grateful you you could debug this bug and will be glad to help you in any way I can. Thanks Regards Mohit
Please, use attachments for such huge output.
Rebuild both plugins against latest firefox!!! Once you do this try and reproduce the crash, I am unable to reproduce such a crash with either plugin installed.
This is against the latest firefox, I am using version 1.5.0.4. Do you want me to upgrade gecko-sdk or mozilla packages? Or Should I rebuilt firefox and mplayerplug-in with CFLAGS="-O -ggdb" and try again ?

Any plugin not built against the browser in this case firefox are incompatible and will cause a segfault.
