www.linuxprinting.org in three tabs.

It crashed, think the key thing is having the java app, other crashes were

I did not install talkback build, I have another box I will install talkback
build on their and X out to test.

How do you install Java ? If you copied .so files, it is not a bug !

You have to symlink it.

See bug 186374 for more infos.

WFM - current trunk build - WinXP-Sp1 - JRE 1.4.1_01

The j2re was installed via rpm, a symlink was created in
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.3a/plugins.[root@nitremb21 plugins]# ls -la
total 28
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Dec 21 13:00 .
drwxr-xr-x    9 root     root         4096 Dec 18 22:31 ..
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           61 Dec 21 13:00 libjavaplugin_oji.so ->

Also, one time it crashed interactive with the java games and one time when
looking at the printer database. I will try to get strace or generate talkback.
Thanks, Have a Happy!!!!

I don't know how to get to the Lexmark entry...
If you start Mozilla from a terminal, does it display any message before crashing?
It is unlikely that the other pages (slashdot, etc.) are related to the crash.  

Please to just loading the relevant Lexmark page and verify that what is
actually responsible for the crash.

Ted Kaczmarek: Can you please try to reproduce this bug with a recent build. 
The problem you are reporting may well have been fixed already.

I tried reproducing this bug and could not.  Works for me.  Using:
