69096 - Changing font in Preferences causes crash.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 68208

(SeaMonkey :: Preferences, defect)

Description

[guldgb]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; N; PPC; en-US; m18) Gecko/20001205
BuildID:    20010215

(this is for Moz 0.8 on OS 9.1, I'm using OS X right now)

Trying to change the font to Skia 12 pt causes a crash. After clicking OK it
crashes.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
After mozilla starts up, select preferences. Select Font, and then change the
font setting to Skia 12 point (skia comes with OS 9). When clicking the OK
button, the app crashes.

A MacsBug stdlog wasn't useful, because the PC was at a bad address. All it
provided was a dump of the registers.



Actual Results:  The dialog should have closed and the font should have changed.
There should have been an entry for "Skia" to change my default font in my user
data js file, but the only one I found was: user_pref("intl.font6.prop_font",
"Skia"); which didn't have any noticable effect upon relaunching.



Expected Results:  The dialog should have closed and the font should have changed.

it does sound like bug 68208 --could you use a talkback build and try to
reproduce it there? let us know the talkback incident number, and we can check
the trace to see if it's similar. thx!

This has got to be 68208. Please test with a talkback build

This looks identical to 68208, marking as a dupe. If talkback reveals that 

this is not a dupe, or you disagree, please reopen.
