301802 - Firefox crashes on this site permanently ( happens only on my new x86_64 machine) was good on x86

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Zer0wL]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.7.9) Gecko/20050719 Firefox/1.0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.7.9) Gecko/20050719 Firefox/1.0.5

When I use sites like
www.mininova.org
www.torrentsearch.org
www.torrentreactor.net
The browser crash with
The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadShmSeg (invalid shared segment parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 35 error_code 179 request_code 149 minor_code 2)
  (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.)
firefox-bin exited with non-zero status (1)



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start firefox on x86_64 platform in 64-bit mode
2.surf to www.mininova.org got to browse categories, switch 2-3 times, 
3.if still not crash make some search.

Actual Results:

Expected Results:

I am using gplflash and flashblock extensions.
And those sites has enough flash banners.

What version of flash are you using? And does it occur with the latest version of Flash? http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux.html#Flash

As mentioned above I am using gpflash, becase there is still no flash for x86_64

Same problem here. Using ubuntu 32-bit with GPLflash plugin:

$ firefox --sync
NP_Initialize
New
SetWindow
SetWindow
SetWindow
Destroy

Same problem.

I have just installed mandriva 2007 on a Dell Dimension 4800 and I am using firefox 2.0, and visiting www.meteo.fr I encoutered the same crash: "The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error. etc...".

I am using Shockwave Flash 7.0 r25.

By the way: this is not the same problem as in 317209 since I am running on 24bits and I can see the website wolfemails.net; but I still can't see meteo.fr (or www.mininova.org), and I could under FF1.5

This is not happens any more.
I believe the problem was with GPL flash plugin.
