"webshell + 3" then stop.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download a new build to my computer
2.Run mozilla (the shell script)


Actual Results:  After webshell +3, nothing happens

Expected Results:  shd have loaded
Works for me.  BUT, I know what your problem is.  I bet if you wait for a day,
or exit and restart X, everything will work again.

If I'm right, your Mozilla is actually spinning when it tries to startup.  It is
performing the same ioctl() in a loop.  Exiting X windows makes everything
better again.  If so, this is a dupe of Bug 46409.  Please let us know either
way.
the messages in bug 46409 look very similar to mine, and it feels like a "very
tight loop" e.g. there is no hard disk activity. but I quit and restarted the X
server (via KDM) and tried again. Still the same problem. Will try tomorrow.

davidhj@mail.com - is this now working for you?

Yup. M17 and a recent build both load.
