Hello Peter, Yes, I did. Nice script! - over my head but I waded through this with my home setup that I use to test before even doing updates at school. A new version of firefox did it to me a month or two ago at home... I'm running a 32 bit version of Firefox out of /opt on my 64 bit systems now with all of the plugins working... Everything was fine until the update that included a newer Firefox. I knew I shouldn't have let into the update. Just too tired to think! Today I've got the same problem on one of my three production servers. I let Firefox update and now all of my plugins are trashed in K12LTSP... This is in another thread. I wonder if the EL5 that Eric massaged for all of us in 64 bit is now polluted by soem repo mistake??

The crash happens after logging into a Gmail account. (Gecko:819): Gdk-WARNING **: shmget failed: error 28 (No space left on device) /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.1/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 819 Segmentation fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"} Apparently the Flash plugin doesn't release the shared memory that it allocates. After I run this script the problem goes away. Is anyone else experiencing this? #!/bin/bash ID=$(ipcs -m | awk '{print $2}') for id in $ID do ipcrm -m $id done </pre>
