Comment 1 Christopher Beland 2001-12-12 06:35:31 UTC 
I should also add that I tried to open
http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~ellard/India-WWW/ immediately thereafter,
in the same manner, before the window had appeared (which it never
actually did).
Comment 2 Yanko Kaneti 2001-12-12 07:22:22 UTC 
i am probably right to say that galeon doesnt start at all for you
this is a sign of a misconfiguration

please check the duplicate

Comment 3 Christopher Beland 2001-12-12 08:27:46 UTC 
This does not appear to be a duplicate of 66373 because:

 - I have a perfectly good working Mozilla installation.
 - Galeon starts normally from panel, and from the command line.
 - Galeon had been working normally previously in the same login
    session.
 - Galeon starts normally when I repeat the procedure with the same
    file (that I was looking at in the gnome-terminal) and the same
    URLs.

I have Galeon and Mozilla installed as RPMs...I would be very
surprised if I had done anything to break them that any mortal user
wouldn't be expected to do:

(0:23 ~) beland@press-your-luck: rpm -qa | grep galeon
galeon-1.0-1

(0:23 ~) beland@press-your-luck: rpm -qa | grep mozilla

Comment 4 Yanko Kaneti 2001-12-12 08:44:31 UTC 
then it will be good if you investigate this because i have certainly
never seen this crash on my system

an i have no idea why it might happen
Comment 5 Yanko Kaneti 2001-12-12 08:55:16 UTC 
you could also check http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64063

your bug is a duplicate of it, but this bug is really elusive
Comment 6 Christopher Beland 2001-12-17 04:49:25 UTC 
Hmm.  Well, from looking at the debugging spoo that got recorded in
the bug reports, I suspect there is one or more parallelism bugs,
perhaps in bookmarks_toolbars_create() or window_create ().

There do exist some tools to help locate this sort of bug; does the
Galeon project use any of them?
