Re: [gentoo-amd64] How can I capture enough debug info to make a good bug report?

[Beso]

first try the w3c validator to see if there is a problem with the web page.
it happes a lot that pages don't display correctly in firefox and sometimes
they even crash it because of some script errors and features that are
available only in internet exploder. so first search a validator in the w3c
page and try using it on the page that gives you problems. you should see
with it if there are problems.
and for what i know firefox has a reporting feature which sends the bug
reports automatically after crashes. i don't really know ho it activates
though.
