GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 313110
crashes semi-randomly
Last modified: 2005-08-15 11:11:54 UTC
Distribution/Version: debian unstable amd64 galeon on debian sid (amd64) is crashing with incredible frequency. one easy way to reproduce this is to go to http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/ and then click on the link to the 9th of august. 9 times out of 10 this will crash. along the same lines, logging into a "gallery" online photo gallery (http://gallery.sf.net) will crash *most* of the time. sometimes simply entering a gallery site will do so. lots of other web pages cause a crash, but it is really odd because if I restart, it will sometimes crash again, and other times load the page fine. I tested with a fresh user, and see the same thing there, so it does not appear to be my config. I tested with mozilla and epiphany, they both have *similar* behavior, but crash significantly less often. Still, this may be a mozilla issue, if so please let me know and I'll close this report and report it there. (however, I can almost use epiphany normally, while I can barely use galeon at all. epiphany truely does crash significantly less often)
A backtrace? What is your gtk version ? It might be caused this mozilla bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300226
as I'm attempting to view web pages (such as userfriendly archive pages), and not shut down, I don't think its necessarily related. gtk 2.6.9-1 from debian sid (amd64 port). backtrace follows. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
+ Trace 62439
Thread 182980947312 (LWP 25097)
note that mozilla itself almost never crashes, and firefox only rarely, which is why I chose to submit this bug here rather than mozilla's bugzilla.
thanks. For more information see the dup and specifically http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=311035#c7 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 311035 ***
