Bug 13081 – mozilla hangs -- no error message

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

[Description Steven Lucy 2003-01-02 04:38:25 UTC]

mozilla (both 1.2.1-r4 and 1.0.1) hang on my machine without an error message.  strace /usr/lib/mozilla/mozilla-bin reveals it gets stuck in a loop poll()ing, and part of the gdb backtrace is below.  USE is -java and mozno<everything allowed>, but the problem persists even without the mozno* flags set.  running on a ppc with pretty much the default CFLAGS.
