40299 - App freezes upon typing into textfield

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Braden]

This has been happening with at least the last two nightlies; I'm currently
seeing it in build 2000052208. The app freezes and CPU utilization maxes out as
soon as any keyboard entry is made into the location bar.

Upgrading to blocker. This makes Mozilla quite unusable.

Comment 2

[Scott Schram]

Unable to reproduce this on build 2000052320 nor on a tree that I compiled on a 
Red Hat 6.2 system.  Perhaps it's Linux version dependent.

This worksforme on 052508 Linux RH 6.1 too. Have you tried deleteting your
profile (~/.mozilla)?

Comment 4

[Braden]

I'm still getting this in 2000052508. I'm using a substantially upgraded RH 6.1.
Are there any particular system libraries I should be looking at in trying to
track this down? GTK, in particular, is version 1.2.7.

Any textfield seems to do it--not just the location bar. Changing summary
accordingly.

This is working for me as of 2000052920. I've juggled some libraries on my

system, so maybe that was it. Since I seem to have been the only one

experiencing this, marking FIXED.
