gecko based browsers were dying on me on this gif http://live.xbox.com/xweb/lib/images/MyXboxSkinImageSheet.gif on both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Hardy, including the live cds. On downloading the image and trying to open it in xpaint I got the same error, it turned out to be related to the xorg exa code that stops pixmaps of width larger than 8188 being allocated, which gecko seems to do for non-simple images of these dimensions. One way to test if it is that is to try and use XAA instead by putting option "AccelMethod" "XAA" in the video driver section of xorg.conf Not all cards seem to be using exa which may be why only some people experience it. I attached a patch to the other bug based on a discussion on the xorg mailing list which fixed all my problems but have no idea if that's the best approach. -- [hardy] firefox breaks on some pages with an X error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/178274 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to epiphany-browser in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
