232389 - Mozilla freezes in fullscreen with invalid URL

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Rob]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031118

X allows you to paste text with the middle-click function. If pressed
when Mozilla is in fullscreen, it will paste the text to the URL and
Mozilla fails to report the URL is wrong and just freezes.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Highlight any text which is not a valid URL.
2. Switch Mozilla to fullscreen with F11.
3. Middle-click to paste the text to the URL bar.
Actual Results:  
Mozilla freezes, failing to show the dialog reporting an invalid URL.

Expected Results:  
Mozilla should show a dialog saying the URL is invalid, like it would if
it was not in fullscreen mode.

I caused this bug to occur three times in a row using arbitrary text for
the invalid URL. It always occurs.
My Mozilla is built from source from Gentoo Portage ebuild net-www/mozilla-1.5-r1.
CFLAGS used:
CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mfpmath=sse
-fprefetch-loop-arrays -falign-functions=32 -fforce-addr -ffast-math
-foptimize-register-move"

worksforme with linux trunk 2004012708 and 1.5

can you grab a stacktrace (with symbols) and/or try a recent build.  A lot of
bugs in 1.5 have already been fixed.

I asked a friend who runs a similar system with Mozilla 1.6 and he tested my bug
on it; apparently, it has been fixed.

There can be differences other than the version that could change the behavior
including build options, Gentoo patches, profiles, system libraries or even
hardware.

You can grab a Mozilla nightly, install it to /tmp, try it out and then delete it.
