you don't want to run "mozilla-bin", just "mozilla". mozilla will launch mozilla-bin for you.

You might want to know, I still get this with 1.3a.
Reporter, are you still seeing this in recent nightly builds? Alternatively, please test this again once Mozilla 1.3 beta is released.
Can't find a nightly build with xft enabled. I'll wait for 1.3b.
Attachment #108470 - Attachment is obsolete: true
I'm sorry to report it still happens in 1.3b. I attached a new backtrace. On Mandrake 9.0 though, I don't have the problem with the xft-enabled build.

do you have Microsoft .fon fonts in your fonts directories ? Does deleting (or archiving) them prevent from crashing ? Could be bug 180309. The stack is very similar to the one from bug 224773, which is solved by removing MS Sans Serif .fon files.
I don't experience it anymore with the Mozilla 1.2.1 included with RedHat 9. I also didn't encounter it with the FireBird 0.7 XFT builds, so I quess it must be solved in some way.
Thanks for your reply. Marking this bug report wfm as per reporter comments.
