When seamonkey is used to display pages containing java applets it crashes the browser. example pages that exhibit this behaviour are: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml http://www.photofredericton.ca/modules.php?set_albumName=album01&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=slideshow.php The photofredericton page worked fine with mozilla-1.7.13. Both pages work fine when viewed with epiphany on the same system. If seamonkey is run from the command line the following error message is displayed: $ seamonkey No running windows found plugin_get_value 1 plugin_get_value 2 # # An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine: # # SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00002aaaab3397da, pid=7339, tid=1100601696 # # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (Blackdown-1.4.2-03 mixed mode) # Problematic frame: # V [libjvm.so+0x3327da] # # An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid7339.log # # If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit: # http://www.blackdown.org/cgi-bin/jdk # Plugin: unexpected work request from child INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Code = 0 System error?:: Success seamonkey-bin exited with non-zero status (255) I will attach a representative error report file.

Oops, forgot to add that I ran epiphany under strace and observed that it used many seamonkey libraries and the nsplugin. I also ran seamonkey under strace and it displayed the pages properly! Looks like a thread sync'ing problem.

Nothing gentoo can do to fix your java problem.
I have no problem with sun-jre 1.5.09 dn seamonkey 1.0.6
As Anarchy says, we can't support java with seamonkey-1.0.x and firefox-1.5.x. Resolving as invalid.
