Subject: [gentoo-user] Seamonkey and random crashes.

1 Hi folks,
2
3 Every once in a while Seamonkey will crash. I been waiting for quite a
4 while this time. It doesn't happen to often but it is annoying. This
5 mostly happens when I am saving a picture and the save dialog box
6 opens. Usually during the save process, everything Seamonkey dies. I
7 ran Seamonkey in a Konsole to see if I got any error messages when it
8 crashed. This is what I get:
9
10 No running windows found
11
12 (gecko:12355): Pango-WARNING **: Error loading GSUB table 0x6EAD
13
14 (gecko:12355): Gdk-WARNING **: GdkWindow 0x3f135c9 unexpectedly destroyed
15
16 (gecko:12355): Gdk-WARNING **: GdkWindow 0x3f135b5 unexpectedly destroyed
17 /usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher: line 119: 12355 Segmentation fault
18 $(type -P aoss) "$mozbin" $xulparams "$@"
19 seamonkey-bin exited with non-zero status (139)
20
21
22 I must confess, I'm on dial-up so I open a TON, read that as a LOT, of
23 windows and tabs. I may have 10 windows with a dozen or so tabs on
24 each. I go take a nap while all that loads and read stuff when I get
25 back and it is done. However, it is not site specific and there is no
26 flash, shockwave, or java on the pages. Mostly text and pics. Not even
27 any scripts on the pages. I actually adblock a LOT of this anyway. It
28 saves bandwidth.
29
30 The mentioned line in mozilla-launcher is below:
31
32 # Will only wait here if browser was started by this script
33 if [[ -n ${mozpid} ]]; then
34 wait ${mozpid}
35 retval=$?
36 [[ ${retval} == 0 ]] \
37 || echo "${mozbin##*/} exited with non-zero status (${retval})" >&2
38 moz_pis_startstop_scripts stop
39 fi
40
41 exit $retval
42
43 The 3rd line is actually line 119 mentioned in the error. How does a
44 "wait" make something crash?
45
46 What I have done so far. I changed MAKEOPTS="-j2" to j1 just to see if
47 it would help any. No change. I also ran this emerge:
48
49 emerge --with-bdeps --oneshot --ask --verbose seamonkey gnupg pinentry
50 =x11-libs/qt-3.3.8b-r1 =x11-misc/xdg-utils-1.0.2-r1
51 =x11-libs/gtk+-2.14.7-r2 =x11-libs/pango-1.22.4 =dev-libs/glib-2.18.4-r1
52 =x11-libs/cairo-1.8.6-r1 =dev-libs/libxml2-2.7.3
53
54 That was done with the j1 setting. Here is more info:

127 About my rig for those who don't know already. Abit NF7 v2.0 mobo, AMD
128 2500+ CPU, 2GBs of ram and about 1Gb of swap. No overclocking either.
129 I do have the mobile chip that can be overclocked but it's running stock
130 speed.
131

158 One thing I do notice when it crashes, my CPU is running at or close to
159 100%. I use Gkrellm to monitor this. I have a huge heat sink on my
160 CPU. It has never been over 100F even at 100%. Right now, it is at 69F
161 for ambient and CPU is 82F. Fan is temp controlled so speed varies.
162
163 Any ideas? I'm using the same CFLAGS and such that I have been using
164 for ages. This started several months ago. I'm not sure if it is a new
165 thing or not or what version was the last stable one.
166
167 Thanks for the help.
