Either Mozilla 1.7 or Firefox 0.9.3 crash when I load web sites such as nascar.com. The browsers simply vanish from the screen -- no error message or warning.
Same here. I am running firefox 1.0PR on ppc. It crashes when visiting most sites. (ex: www.mozilla.org/support/). I have tried all the ideas suggested in the forums . When run from command line using mozilla-launcher it gives the following error before dying. libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Unable to create ~/.gnome directory: No such file or directory /usr/bin/firefox: line 388: 31952 Segmentation fault $mozbin "$@" This problem presists even when I am root. Another symptom is that when it crashes it creates a directory with the name "?v@h?v@h" in my home directory. I re-emerge XFree and a lot of other packages. I can't seem to find a way out. Anybody have any idea?
I can consistently get mozilla, mozilla-bin, firefox, firefox-bin, and epiphany to crash using the following steps: 1. Go to www.amazon.co.jp 2. Search for Savarin 3. Click on Physiology of Taste on the left hand side of screen The error is always: /usr/bin/mozilla: line 88: 8316 Floating point exception$mozbin "$@"
The particular URL that crashes all my gecko browsers is: http://www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0002CDOCW/qid=1097523592/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_8_1/250-1524405-4093832 I can access the URL with Konqueror. The results of strace firefox 2>&1 | grep -E "open\("|less and then pasting URL into Location and committing are: open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/lib/libdl.so.2", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/lib/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/dev/tty", O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/locale.alias", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_IDENTIFICATION", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MEASUREMENT", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_TELEPHONE", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_ADDRESS", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_NAME", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_PAPER", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MESSAGES", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/SYS_LC_MESSAGES", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MONETARY", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_COLLATE", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_TIME", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_NUMERIC", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_CTYPE", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/etc/mtab", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/proc/meminfo", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/usr/bin/firefox", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3 open("/proc/sys/kernel/ngroups_max", O_RDONLY) = 3 open("/home/ngellner/.firefox/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/ngellner/.firefox/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/ngellner/.firefox/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/home/ngellner/.mozilla/firefox/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 3 open("/home/ngellner/.mozilla/firefox/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 3 open("/home/ngellner/.mozilla/firefox/", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 3 open("/usr/share/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/en.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) I can provide any USE flags that will be helpful.

Original poster -- problem was probably leftover files from an older browser installation. Try again with more recent versions. The later mozilla-launcher cleans up problematic files when you update mozilla or firefox. Raj, your problem was different. You have a gtk1 build with gnomevfs support enabled. That was my fault. Try current 1.0-r2 which requires gtk2 regardless of USE setting (upstream no longer supports gtk1). Next time please file a separate bug when the symptoms are different. It's easier for devs to mark dups than it is to work with different bugs in one report. Noah, yours is the third bug in this report. The page you mentioned works for me. If it doesn't work for you with 1.0-r2 then please open a new bug report. None of you supplied emerge --info as instructed by the bug report form.
