Hoi, I switched from Debian to NetBSD some weeks ago. The installation was no problem and I already set up most of the software I need. However, I have this problem that Firefox segfaults quite often. In my eyes this is surprising cause I use the stable branch. Maybe I did something wrong. Firefox crashes only in few cases during browsing (this is probably related to flash or the like). But it crashes quite frequently when restoring the previous session on a new startup. It even crashes then if this session was usable before the shutdown. It goes as follows: I start Firefox. The ``restore previous session''- window appears. I say: Yes restore. Two windows with about 10 tabs each open and start to load. (I have a slow Internet connection, 384k down, thus it takes a while.) Some websites are already loaded, some still load ... then it crashes. I usually can get it to run if I close some of the tabs very quickly, but this is just try and error. It would be great to receive some help meillo further information: $ uname -a NetBSD pantheon.schnalke.local 4.0.1 NetBSD 4.0.1 (GENERIC) #0: Tue Oct 7 22:58:48 PDT 2008 builds@wb30:/home/builds/ab/netbsd-4-0-1-RELEASE/i386/200810080053Z-obj/home/builds/ab/netbsd-4-0-1-RELEASE/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386 $ /usr/pkg/sbin/pkg_info | grep firefox firefox-2.0.0.19 Lightweight gecko-based web browser mplayer-plugin-firefox-3.55 Mplayer plug-in for firefox $ gdb (gdb) core-file firefox-bin.core Core was generated by `firefox-bin'.
