Perhaps you can start Mozilla from the command line and look at the
messages when it dies. What plugins do you have installed? Just type
about:plugins in the address bar. Another thing to try is the following:
Close your Mozilla
mv .mozilla .mozilla.bck
Start Mozilla
Look if the problem is still there
Two days ago, my Slack 10 CDs have arrived. I
will install it now in a
new partition and will try to reproduce your problem.
In the LinuxPackages forum, they say it's a problen when you run Mozilla
on a machine which has Freetype2 which has been recompiled with the
hinting option. Weird, that's exactly what I did. So, Slack10 is likely
to work out-of-the-box, as Freetype is in its 'US' form. Firefox should work, according to the forum, but it
doesn't. Mozilla has
annoyed my on several other occasions, so I might just get rid of it one
of these days :-(
I have abolutely no problem. Under Slack 9.1 I used the version 1.7
without Pango support from www.mozilla.org. Under Slack 10 I used
Slackware's version.
Perhaps it lies on the KDE environment. Try without KDE. Run xwmconfig
under Slackware and select another environment.
