It's not Mozilla. It's the Fedora packaging.

It's not that tedious, only one command:
rm -fr /usr/lib/firefox-*/extensions/langpack-*
rm -fr /usr/lib64/firefox-*/extensions/langpack-*

It also happens with the radeon driver as well....
Whether or not the drivers support or don't support 3D, it shouldn't
cause X to hang. It takes out both the mouse movement and the keyboard
with it. I can still see disk activity, so I can only assume that my
direct interface to the laptop is useless when this happens. It would
be nice if I could at least change to another VT and bag X....

Given the fact that it takes out the keyboard and the mouse and all
activity stops onscreen, I remotely ssh from another box to reboot the
machine.

Interesting. Perhaps you could add that to the BZ page. The more
comments the better.

For me the mouse cursor keeps moving but that's it. I have to reboot.
Even logging in via ssh from elsewhere and trying to kill X doesn't
work.

To be clear: NM isn't doing anything directly to Evo. Evo is doing it to
itself because it believes NM when the latter says it's offline.

Yes, the problem was fixed on my desktop computer. However, with my
laptop, I am getting no sound and the following messages on the
console:
$ ALSA lib control.c:909:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL hdmi
ALSA lib control.c:909:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL hdmi

Any ideas?

I think the applications test periodically to see if they are online.
If I'm wrong, then what happens is NM notifies a service (dbus) that
you've gone offline and the apps either poll that or receive
notification from it.
Corrections welcome from knowledgeable respondents.

Subject: Firefox on F9 with latest 64bit flash
To: fedora-list at redhat.com
Message-ID: <4A75FEE8.3090603 at gmail.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
I'm having a problem with firefox and the latest 64 bit flashplayer on
F9. Every time I go to youtube.com firefox crashes with the following:
$ firefox
/usr/lib64/firefox-3.0.11/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 24767 Segmentation
fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
has anyone else seen this?
I moved my ~/.mozilla directory out of the way and restarted firefox.
This resulted in a new ~/.mozilla and everything works fine at this
point. I can go to youtube.com and firefox doesn't crash. I can't play
any videos since they require the flash plugin. I create
.mozilla/plugins and copy libflashplayer.so into that directory and
restart firefox. As soon as I go to youtube.com firefox crashes.
$ md5sum .mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
9903881108ff7cd954a3adf0d00185d3 .mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
$ file ~/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
/home/pgaltieri/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so: ELF 64-bit LSB
shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), stripped
I have the same version of libflashplayer.so running on F11 and firefox
does not crash there, however, I'm running the 3.5.1 version of firefox
on F11.
I tried an older version of libflashplayer.so and the same thing happened.
Any thoughts as to what the problem might be and how to fix it?

I think this is a Fedora packaging issue. ISTR a discussion about
changing the packaging of Fx language packs in the future, but I don't
recall the outcome.
File a bug in Bugzilla (if there isn't one already). If it's an
upstream issue, it can be pushed from there.

I'd've been glad to -- till it kept telling me over and over, no
matter what else I did, that my ID or password was invalid. This has been
absolutely typical of every attempt I have ever made to use mozillazine
or any other never-to-be-sufficiently-accursed mozilla site. (That's one
reason I posted here, instead of to one of their &%$#& exercises in
frustration.) If I get onto some site of theirs at all, it turns out
absurdly difficult to find anything, and worse to post.

Almost exactly what I was trying to say. Only disabling is not
nearly good enough. If you su - a terminal tab to root and launch firefox
from the CLI, you can uninstall instead. It's no more tedious, and then
at least they're off your machine -- for a while.

There are a few extensions on account of which I've been keeping
it; but that motive grows ever fainter. If I can get those extensions on
some other browser, Firefox (which, alas!, I have used and advocated
since it was Phoenix 0.4) is toast, and good riddance.

You don't need to uninstall the langpacks through Firefox. You can do it with
one single command, as I posted earlier in this thread.

But may be tedious afterwards if you need to have a single, namely your
native, non-english language.
And, generally, it's not a good idea to delete files which are managed
by a package manager.

Thanks! That looks like something that will be going in my fix-firefox
script which I automatically run via the after-yum-hook I whipped
out one day that automatically runs my collection of fixup scripts
every time yum finishes :-). Very useful to beat back undead
things that keep getting reinstalled by updates...

I took you to mean a bug against Fedora. It is now Bug 515153.
Thank you.
