From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020311 Description of problem: I performed a fresh skipjack beta 2 install. I configured system in the same manner as I have my RH 7.2 setup on the same machine, but I experience frequent mozilla browser crashes on skipjack beta 2. Details: I setup skipjack beta 2 as follows, custom install, graphical login. I added a user account for my 3 year old son. I setup GDM configurator to automatically boot into the user account. I left default setting, it boots into GNOME desktop. I configured gnome to automatically start mozilla, Programs->Settings->Session->Session Properties & Startup. The mozilla home page is set to www.nickjr.com. I downloaded and installed the latest Macromedia Flash 5 plugin. Mozilla appears to work fine for a while but will then crash, this happens on other web sites as well, for instance this morning while I was using webmail. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.see description above 2. 3. Additional info: I also have a problem where sometimes Nautilus starts up and sometimes it does not. When Nautilus does not start up I do not get desktop icons and also the right click mouse functions do not seem to work.

I added this to my bash_profile script as a work-around for my end-users using Gnome on campus X Terminals. rm ~/.gnome/session rm ~/.gnome/session-options rm ~/.gnome/Background IMHO, Nautilus is currently too buggy for normal use. I expect Gnome 2.0 should be better though...
Regarding your Mozilla crashes, try downgrading to the Flash version included in Red Hat's netscape 4.7x package in /usr/lib/netscape/plugins. The newest version from Macromedia's site is known to cause Mozilla to crash very often.
Worksforme.
