From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: Fresh install of rawhide 2005.01.09 on AMD k6-2@400MHz (320MB RAM other standard hardware) Running firefox with IPv6 enabled causes firefox to consume large amounts of CPU without opening a window in 10+ minutes of running. Disabling ipv6 (net-pf-10 off) allows firefox to run quite well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firefox-1.0-8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. fresh install of rawhide (2005.01.09) 2. default setup 3. try to run firefox Actual Results: firefox "hangs" consuming CPU time and not timeing out Expected Results: firefox should open a window and proceed normally Additional info:
David can you reproduce this? I know you use ipv6.
Firefox is running fine here on rawhide here with IPv6 support present. Both when I have a global IPv6 address and without. Suggest you use strace or GDB to see what it's doing. I haven't tried rawhide on anything but ppc, but I see no reason why i386 should be different in this respect.
David -- did you have firefox running *before* 1.0-8 on this system? (See bug #145806)
Yes. I've had firefox on this system since 0.10.1-1.0PR1.21 when the PPC build was fixed (bug #135225)
