219292 - Mozilla stops responding; UI "smears" when moved

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[hcaley]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030914
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030914

Mozilla stops responding; any Mozilla Windows I have open stop accepting input,
and they "smear" if I move them around behind other windows or widgets, etc.

I can killall mozilla-bin, and restart, but eventually it will lock up again

Reproducible: Sometimes

I'm using RedHat 9, with all updates available as of 9/12/2003.  I've seen it
happen on Mozilla 1.2 (redhat's shipped version), 1.4 and the latest trunk
builds for i686 Linux.

Which exact builds are you using?  The tarballs or the RPM builds?

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030914
mozilla-1.2.1-26 rpms

Trunk seems to go down more easily, but it's happened with 1.4 and 1.2.1 as well.

Are those first two tarballs or RPM builds?  What does about:buildconfig say?

Comment 4

[hcaley]

They are both tarballs from mozilla.org.  One is the released version of 1.4 for
Linux; the other is a trunk build from 8/14; about:buildconfig below:

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
