I forgot that we had this bug upstream: http://code.google.com/p/winff/issues/detail?id=55
It turned out that the problem was with a buggy theme in KDE. Are you using KDE as your desktop manager? If yes, can you test if the following helps (it does NOT for me thou): on Kubuntu 9.10 this happens as well but I found if you go into system settings > Appearance > GTK+Appearance and change the Widget Style from QTCurve to Raleigh it no longer crashes. you can then change back to QTCurve so Firefox doesn't look ugly. AND Also, if you want a selection install all available gtk+ themes from synaptic and you can choose a look that fits better with your kde theme. all gtk+ themes I tried worked fine, the only one that seems to crash winff is QTCurve ** Bug watch added: code.google.com/p/winff/issues #55 http://code.google.com/p/winff/issues/detail?id=55 -- Winff startup warning about access violation and possible data corruption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521818 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
