I remember that discussion, but I can't remember the specifics. So just a few hints: What desktop/window manager are you using? Perhaps you can create a test user and try various setups to see what is causing your problem. I am running Windowmaker and just upgraded to Galeon 1.2.6. My desktop is a mixed bag of testing and unstable and I compiled my own kernel and nvidia drivers. I suppose this is asking for trouble, yet for me Galeon is very stable. Apart from some image artifacts when scrolling (mostly on Slashdot), I have no issues at all. I just installed the Sun Java plugin. I have no other plugins. Maybe it's plugin related? I started with the barest system possible and apt-getted only the things I needed. I hope this makes troubleshooting easier when I run into trouble with a feature I need. When something doesn't work or causes problems, I start the application from an xterm. More than once I got a clue from error messages that were written to the terminal. Is it possible that it's hardware related? Bad memory? Which video card are you using? Since most people have no problems running Galeon, I am afraid you'll need to investigate and try different things wrt to your system or use an alternative.
