go into .mozilla/firefox/${profile}/ and delete compreg.dat and restart firefox.
I should have mentioned that I previously tried removing .mozilla all together. Just for fun, I tried removing just compreg.dat, just now. The situation remains unchanged. Sorry, left out some detail. I tried removing .mozilla with 3.6.4. When that had no effect, I restored the directory. Later, I upgraded to firefox 3.6.6 and xulrunner 1.9.2.6 (both ~x86). The situation remained the same. Just now, with the newer versions in place, I tried removing compreg.dat, which also had no effect. I have the same issue. Tried with --debug but I could not see anything relevant. Moved the .mozilla directory into .mozilla_OK, no effect tried to start as root, no effect. lately updated to... glibc-2.11.2 (In reply to comment #5) > lately updated to... glibc-2.11.2 > I also recently updated to this glibc, but the problem started before that by at least a day or so. Have you run `revdep-rebuild --ignore`? yes. the output is shown below.

Furthermore I did start firefox with --debug option. The output is also shown untill it did not move anymore, just stuck

===============
I am having an intel graphic card with 2.12 driver and latest xorg server 1.8.1.902
I had not run revdep-rebuild --ignore, but I just did. It gives the all clear without updating anything. I also have an intel card. xf86-video-intel-2.10.0-r1 and xorg-server-1.7.6, in case that's relevant. In my case Firefox starts again. I have updated to sys-libs/glibc 2.11.2 Octavian, isn't that the same glibc you said you had before? I ran strace on firefox. It seems to hang at a futex call. I tried to upload the output as an attachment, but the bugtracker threw an error. I'd report that properly, but I normally use webmail, and my browser is broken ... anyway, output of strace follows:

I found something relevant looking here: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435683 Using 'LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libc.so.6 firefox' still results in: futex(0xb7403040, FUTEX_WAIT_PRIVATE, 2, NULL glibc was indeed 2.11.2 before (not-working) and after(working). However I see an update to dev-libs/glib-2.24.1 For me, building firefox with previously stable binutils-2.18-r3 makes it work. Firefox-3.6.3 also fails in the same way as comment #12 if built with binutils-2.20.1-r1. This is also on a hardend box in case it makes any difference. I just blacklisted binutils-2.20.1-r1 and downgraded to 2.18-r3, rebuild nspr, xulrunner, and firefox, and it's working. (Posting from Firefox.) So do we know what's wrong with binutils? I have 2.20.1-r1 (nls) and it works in my case.

As suggested by Zorry et al. in #gentoo-hardened, it all works with the hardened stable candidate gcc-4.4.3-r3 + binutils-2.20.1-r1. (In reply to comment #18) > As suggested by Zorry et al. in #gentoo-hardened, it all works with the > hardened stable candidate gcc-4.4.3-r3 + binutils-2.20.1-r1. > I've used 4.4.3-r3 or 4.4.4-r1 + binutils-2.20.1-r1 + glibc-2.11.2 on x86 and amd64 and never hit this one. We also tested an idea that maybe it was due to a compiler built -fno-PIE trying to build a PIE binary. That made no difference. 4+ months with no activity feel free to reopen and provide a backtrace if needed. |
