1) Remerge firefox with the debug use flag |
| 29 |
2) rebuild your kernel (if needed) with CONFIG_ELF_CORE=y |
| 30 |
3) reboot |
| 31 |
4) connect your page |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
The segfault should produce a core file that you could send to firefox devs. |

If I forgot something, guys, please correct me. |
