Hi all, |
| 26 |
I wrote to the list a couple of weeks ago about Firefox continually |
| 27 |
crashing and got this detailed list of things I might try to see if I |
| 28 |
could find a fix. As I'm not a sys admin or a programmer the list |
| 29 |
scared me off a bit. However I've had a very bad week of Firefox |
| 30 |
crashing many times every day so I really need to try and find a |
| 31 |
solution. This is the best set of ideas I've seen so far so I'm going |
| 32 |
to try to do some of it today. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Again, for review, Firefox started crashing multiple times a day |
| 35 |
sometime after I tried to make sure I had Java and Flash working. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
I'd like to ask some questions about the ideas that were given. |
| 38 |
Please keep in mind that primarily I am using firefox-bin. |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
1) How do I turn java and/or java-script off for firefox-bin? Is it |
| 41 |
just the setting in the Preferences panel? |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
2) With respect to using Java in 64-bit Gentoo I am unsure of how to |
| 44 |
configure my machine. If the OS is 64 bit but Firefox is 32-bit then |
| 45 |
what is the correct setting? |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
lightning ~ # eselect java-vm list |
| 48 |
Available Java Virtual Machines: |
| 49 |
[1] emul-linux-x86-java-1.6 |
| 50 |
[2] sun-jdk-1.5 |
| 51 |
[3] sun-jdk-1.6 system-vm |
| 52 |
[4] sun-jre-bin-1.6 |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
lightning ~ # eselect java-vm show |
| 55 |
Current system-vm |
| 56 |
sun-jdk-1.6 |
| 57 |
Current user-vm |
| 58 |
(unset) |
| 59 |
lightning ~ # |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
It seems that my system has a VM but my account does not? I assume |
| 62 |
that my account then uses the system VM? Is this appropriate? Also, do |
| 63 |
I want to be using the sun-jdk? Or do I want either jre-bin or the |
| 64 |
emulation vm? |
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
With respect to the browser plugins I see this: |
| 67 |
|
| 68 |
lightning ~ # eselect java-nsplugin list |
| 69 |
Available 32-bit Java browser plugins |
| 70 |
[1] emul-linux-x86-java-1.6 current |
| 71 |
Available 64-bit Java browser plugins |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
lightning ~ # eselect java-nsplugin show |
| 74 |
Current Java browser plugin |
| 75 |
(unset) |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
These setting just seem strange to me. |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
More info follows about what is installed. Let me know whatever info |
| 80 |
you need to better judge why my browsers crash all the time now. |
| 81 |
|
| 82 |
As for the ccache idea I really like the idea of keeping packages |
| 83 |
around but not sure how I would use them correctly. For now I'll just |
| 84 |
keep building stuff and see if I Can figure that out in parallel. |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
Thanks in advance, |
| 87 |
Mark |
