Re: mozilla doesn't load

2004-08-18 Thread tat
Hello i woud like to catch on that thread, because i got a simular problem.
I used debian sarge on an diskless installation and have problems to run
Mozilla or Mozilla-Firebird, some dayes earlyer i installed the woody
realease and had the same problems.Then i tried other aplications also
some different browsers, they run whithout problem.So i'm sure that's an
mozilla specific problem.
To answer the questions from the last mail:

1) The process exits on its own and no mozilla-firebird regarding
prozesses are left(at least most of the times).

3) Error message: The error messages tells basically that it don't finds
the locale file's in /var/lib/mozilla-firefox/locales.d,
It is empty because all clients got different /var  directories on the
master and they where not syncronist, but at least the directory
/var/lib/mozilla-firebird/locales.d where created, i found that a bit
weard but unless i think the locales are not the mainbroplem i think
that's not so important and is more a diskless problem.
After i coppied the specific file there, i got no more error
when i run firefox, but when i stard the browser whith mozilla-firefox i get

(process:1368): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.

still no browser appears on my screen!!

is it possibill that mozilla has to write on the root filesystem which is
ro mounted??
here are my mounts:
/ nfs ro
/home nfs rw
/var  nfs rw
/var/lib/dpkg nfs ro
/tmp  nfs rw

I'm running an STB Velocity 3D 4MB card right now.  It is only supported
in XFree86 3.2.  The S3V server is still considerd beta, but it's working
for me.  I must admit that it's the only card I've used under X, so I
can't really offer any comparison.

I tried to post this to the newsgroup, as I no longer subscribe to the

I've also managed to hose the FTP functionality of dselect, but I know how
it happened, I just don't know the best way to fix it.  I had upgraded
several packages & in the process, filled up the partition, primarly with
.deb files.  In a flash of late-night insight, I decided to just 'rm -rf'
everything below /var/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/debian.  That's where all those
space-taking .deb files were, right?  Well, now trying to use the FTP
option of dselect gives me:

Can't locate Net/Config.pm in @INC at /usr/lib/perl5/Net/FTP.pm line 21.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/Net/FTP.pm line 21.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/setup line
7.

query/setup script returned error exit status 2.


So, I locate a Config.pm in /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00307, but that's
not the right one.  I looked at a working Debian system & there's not a
Config.pm in /usr/lib/perl5/Net/.  I tried re-installing dpkg & dpkg-ftp,
but no luck.  I'm pretty much of a newbie (evidenced by the 'rm -rf') & my
programming knowledge is almost nil, though I could probably compile a new
version of dpkg, if that's what needs doing.

Thanks for any assisstance, please cc: me on responses.
