User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051110 Camino/1.0b1+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051110 Camino/1.0b1+

I installed the latest nightly update, then put in the trash what was recommended. When I opened Camino after trashing these items, the Quicktime photos didn't appear; then the system crashed.Now when I open Camino, everything is gone:home page, all bookmarks, etc. I tried putting back the earlier version and the preferences, caches, etc. I still get a "stripped" page. Help!

Reproducible: Always

I'm trying to add an attachment of the crash log, but I don't see where to do it on the attachment page. When I add it under file, I'm told I haven't added a file. How can I get you the crash log? I copied it into TextEdit and have it on my desktop.

Joanne, to upload a crash log: Click the "Create a New Attachment" link on this page -> Click "Browse" on the attachment page, and choose your file -> Fill other fields appropriately -> hit submit.

You say you trashed "what was recommended."  What exactly did you trash, and who recommended it?

Attachment: Crash Log from Joanne

Forwarded email and attachment from Joanne to my bugmail account.  Joanne, in the future, please do try to put comments and files here on bugzilla so I don't have to do it manually.  You'll need *plain text* files (as opposed to the rich text file you sent me).

reporter, we need you to attach /Users/joannewalen/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/Camino.crash.log, what you sent is not helpful :(
