Firefox-2.0.0.1-2.fc7 debuginfo backtrace
Comment #2 contains a debuginfo backtrace of a firefox crash on my x86_64 rawhide system, an Asus M2V motherboard running a custom 2.6.20-rc1-current-git kernel. The crash is very similar to Michal's. Similar enough to be considered a duplicate, I think. I was forced to erase my fc7 because selinux permissions wouldn't let mkinitrd make a good image with 2.6.19 rpm. Everything worked before. Now since my fresh install firefox just dumped one day and would only work as root. Today I had to report segfault after GTK Accessibility Module initialized on bittorrent-5.0.5 which started with move to python-2.6 and figured I'd report this also. I lost all my bookmarks moving .mozilla back upon itself and have been using the firefox and thunderbird builds off mozilla.org ever since because both only work as root whether selinux is off or not. I thought it was my home user directory and a botched fc6 update(not enough ram to finish cleanup and system-config-users wouldn't work) really messed me up and I had to use webmin to get the right pam modules on the home user directory just to prove it wasn't my home directory. Firefox and Thunderbird just don't work as user anymore permanently. In the current state of rawhide firefox does not exhibit the problem. It takes a long while to start but it starts without SIGSEGV attractions. |
