Bug 107275 – mozilla-firefox-1.0.7: now needs significant more time to start

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Fritz Heinrichmeyer 2005-09-26 05:17:41 UTC]

after installing mozilla-firefox-1.0.7, i recognize  a timeout without computing
activity and after this timeout regular firefox behavior. New ist the following
warning:

/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/mozilla-xremote-client: Error: Failed to send command:
No error string reported..
Browser doesn't understand command

and after this Gdk warnings as usual ....

(firefox-bin:6807): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped
in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?)

there must be a hidden debugging message verboseness contest between the gtk and
the kde camp.

 






Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.start firefox in a terminal window
2. wait and wait
3. then look at error messages and firefox is there

Actual Results:  
normal firefox activity

Expected Results:  
no timeout phase

after update to mozilla-firefox-1.0.7, the timeout was gone, after reboot only


(firefox-bin:9043): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped

is left. As dual boot windows user is should have known that reboot helps.
