Package: mozilla-firefox
Version: 1.0.4-2sarge11
Severity: normal
Hi. Sorry to add to your troubles. There sure are a lot of things on
your plate. :-( It seems upstream ought to consider a complete re-
write.
This morning, I sat down to a machine that (momentarily, about five
minutes) wouldn't let me login. I thought my monitor/video adaptor had
fried themselves. Eventually, I did get an Xscreensaver prompt, and
then all was well (after a couple of failed login attempts). I'm running
Blackbox and Xscreensaver; no XDM/GDM/KDM involved. I use:
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox-bin -a firefox -safe-mode \
-geometry 916x621+22+14
to start FF (that's from a "ps aux" listing).
logcheck reports this:

--------------------------------
I only had two tabs open. System uptime is currently 72 days. "ps aux"
says mozilla-firefox VSZ == 163140, RSS == 83160. FF was still running
when I eventually got in.
I've .5 Gb RAM in this thing. Compaq Deskpro, PIII-733 Mhz.
If I can supply additional info, please just ask. Are there any
additional logs I could supply that the binary version creates? Should
I use another command line switch which might create them?
BTW, Java on this box is Sun's jre: jre1.5.0_06, in case that helps.
Just another data point. Hope it helps. I also have these lying
around, though neither page open was a flash page:
ii libswfdec0.3 0.3.4-2sarge0. SWF (Macromedia Flash) decoder library
ii swf-player 0.3.4-2sarge0. SWF (Macromedia Flash) player
swf is very much frowned on around here, but I use them to try to help.
That, and they let me watch World Cup snippets. :-)
Bon chance.
