Crash crash crash, FireFox unhappy

[Andy Pieters]

Hi

I thank you for your suggestion but it won't work since I installed FireFox 
directly from the download site. Using the rpm results in a FireFox with 
illegible fonts.

What would really help me out, is being able to produce a backtrace.  Since 
firefox-bin cannot be invoked directly, I cannot use gdb against it, and gdb 
doesn't work with sh scripts (firefox load is sh script).

I could not compile from source I forgot why but at that time I decided that I 
didn't want to go on another dependency whichhunt that's likely to take me a 
whole day, which I'd rather spent doing real (read paid) work.

So I would be very interested to be enlighted with a technique to obtain a 
usable backtrace of FireFox.

Always eager to learn



Andy
