Description Patrizio Bassi 2006-04-16 01:10:03 UTC

this will be a strange report, because i can't debug properly.

$ firefox

starts...but crashes when i access some ssl pages or flash pages (not all)
it's using mozilla-launcher script.
100% reproduceble here, always same problem with google adsense ssl page.

$ /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox-bin
works perfectly.

i'm using a bookmark page, so it's not input related or similar.
i don't know what that script does, but it's weird.

i tried to start via gdb, but it fails, obviously, it's not a binary.
