Additional information:
Using atokx that is kana-kanji conversion processor causes crash,
bat kinput + canna does not.

Katakai-san do you have any information about this problem?
Hi Oshima-san,

Could you tell me your linux distribution?
I'll try.

Actually it causes core dump in XIM of Xlib.

My enveironment:
Distro: Debian GNU/Linux sid(unstable)
XFree86 4.2.1-5
Metacity 2.4.21-2
atokx 1.0-1
Reproduced on my environment - VineLinux 2.6,
Mozilla dumps core in xim of Xlib.

I'll look into this. Assigned to myself.

Summary: Crash with Flash 6 plugin for linux → ATOK X: Crash with Flash 6 plugin for linux
Japanese tester reports VJE-Delta 3.0 and Wnn7/xwnmo
also cause crash.
So I don't think this is ATOKX-specific problem.

Reports in Bugzilla-jp are:
http://bugzilla.mozilla.gr.jp/show_bug.cgi?id=2961#c3
http://bugzilla.mozilla.gr.jp/show_bug.cgi?id=2961#c4
It seems that the problem is in X lib or flash plugin, not in Mozilla.

I  have verified that Mozilla XIM codes (under widget/src/gtk) does not
cause this problem. I tried Mozilla built without USE_XIM ifdef and
verified the same problem happens, which means the crash happens
when flash calls XIM API.

I need to debug X lib. For flash, I have submitted a bug report to macromedia.
Summary: ATOK X: Crash with Flash 6 plugin for linux → Crash with Flash 6 plugin for linux
Flash 6.0.79.0 is released. I tested it with 1.3 branch nightly build.
{Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; ja-JP; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030227}

<http://www.macromedia.com/> is modified, then now I don't see crash when visit
there. but this release doesn't seem to fix the problem.
for example, I have crash when visit my ISP web site: <http://www.tiki.ne.jp/>.
sorry I had 2 mistakes.
forgot to show stack trace.
and builds I tested is 1.3b build with my some testing patch and
1.3 branch nightly build at 2003-03-04-11-1.3.

http://www.macromedia.com/ has been changed.
Now mozilla doesn't crash with flash 6.
I will find the page that causes crash.
No reply from macromedia.
I have sent bug report again.

I just heard MIYASHITA Hisashi (himi@meadowy.org) had found the problem in
X11R6, here is his solution:

================================

I've found what cause this problem accurately.  ximcp.so fails to manage
filter registration under a certain conditaion.

Could all of you test the following patch?

Ervin Yan,
Japanese users report the patch seems good.
http://bugzilla.mozilla.gr.jp/show_bug.cgi?id=2961

Thanks for your great work.
Maybe I'm seeing this bug, maybe not.
Mozilla 1.4 started occasionally crashing since I installed
Java and Flash plugins. The easiest example is http://www.nasa.gov/
Upon clicking "skip intro" Moz dies.

Seems like Flash plugin related problem. Moz does not crash with
flash .so module renamed out of the way in the plugins/.

My Flash is:
Flash Player 6 for Linux
Mozilla Plug-in and Standalone players
Update Version 6.0r79
4 March 2003
Attached file testcase — 
Testcase for this bug;
This bug was already fixed on SuSE, so for currently, it only can be reproduced
on RedHat 9 platform. 

Please use the testcase I attached to reproduce this bug on Redhat platform;
A.D

There is no flash file in your attached testcase:-(

This may or may not be the same as bug 209429, but major Linux distro. vendors
updated XFree86 packages with fixes a while ago and that was rel-noted in
Mozilla i18n rel. notes (see bug 211213 comment #13). I'm not sure what to do
when a bug can be 'fixed' by upgrading a third-party library.
