See attached additional info. 'BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length erro' (Details: serial 31288 error_code 16 request_code 154 minor_code 20) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.go to the page Actual Results: crash Expected Results: normal page display The program 'mozilla-bin' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length erro'. (Details: serial 31288 error_code 16 request_code 154 minor_code 20) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
