try setting off java, clear everything from cache to cookies of passwords, |
2 |
disable addons and the restart it and see if it crashes. if it doesn't for |
3 |
some time enable one add-on per time and try it out for some time. if it |
4 |
doesn't crashes then add another addon. |
5 |
the last thing is to see if you have the x86 emuls installed if you are on |
6 |
64bit arch (java,sound,base,xorg) then see if you have the plugins compiled |
7 |
for 32 bit (you should have it that way since they are available on 32bit |
8 |
except mplayer). another thing is to have the last stable version of gtk+. |
9 |
that should fix the issues. |
10 |
if that doesn't work either try also compiling the mozilla-firefox package |
11 |
(and start it via firefox and not firefox-bin). if that's stable with the |
12 |
same .mozilla directory then there's something wrong in the firefox-bin |
13 |
package. |
14 |
i'd suggest you install ccache before compiling if you don't yet use it and |
15 |
to add the option --buildpkg to emerge, so that you can have the firefox |
16 |
package built for your particular system. this is useful also for long time |
17 |
compiling packages as gtk+,qt or kdelibs and kdebase. if you'd later need to |
18 |
reinstall them (for example the expat-2 update) you can install them in a |
19 |
matter of little time. just be aware that the packaging requires additional |
20 |
disk space to package the files once they're compiled. |
21 |
i didn't experience crashes in the last 6 months. |
