Help! After doing an update and upgrade of Debian testing yesterday (4th Feb), mozilla hangs on startup: Typing 'mozilla &' in a shell never returns. Obviously it worked fine prior to this update; previous update was on 14th Jan. The bizarre things about this problem are:
1/ neither mozilla nor any of the packages it depends on where upgraded
in the upgrade that broke it, and
2/ root can start mozilla fine but normal users cannot
I've tried purging and reinstalling mozilla, and deleting .mozilla
directories, but that doesn't fix the problem. I've also checked my
loopback interface (wrt a previous post on this list) and it looks
fine:
$ /sbin/ifconfig
....
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
RX packets:16 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:16 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:1140 (1.1 KiB) TX bytes:1140 (1.1 KiB)
The last part of the strace is attached below (is this at all
useful?). mozilla hangs at the end with minimal apparent memory or
cpu usage.
Very grateful for any ideas ...
Toby.
