I am not sure if this is a problem w/ the OS or the application.  Just figured
that I would run it by you.

Firefox crashes unexpectedly.

Should load page with no problem.  The page only contains some CSS, JavaScript,

Works for me on current cvs build on SuSE 9.0 with Java 1.4.2

I'm using Blackdown-1.4.2-rc1 on the last milestone release.  I'll try and grab
the latest nightly build, and give it a try on that.

Alright, I've downloaded the latest nightly build of Firefox.  Just to check to
see if it's the Java plug-in.  I've tried to install the Java plug-in from Sun.
 However,  the symbolic link in the plugins directory has been created, but the
plug-in does not show up in about:plugins.  

I am using Fedora Core 1 in case that is in someway relevant.
