Hi hackers
I'm tired of my X server occasionaly freezing, swap thrasing, & firefox dumps:
4,346,937,344 ~/firefox-bin.core
so as a temporary cludge I ran
touch ~/firefox-bin.core ; chmod 000 ~/firefox-bin.core
I could put X users in another group, & reduce limits, per
man login.conf ... RESOURCE LIMITS
suggestions of values welcome.
Yes 7.1 is old, thats my screen server, till I complete local builds of
7.2 & 8.0 on other boxes., then I'll upgrade, but I'll still want firefox
though I see firefox is still troublesome eg
uname -r # 8.0-RELEASE
cd /usr/ports/www/firefox/Makefile ; make
make # ===> firefox-2.0.0.20_9,1 is forbidden:
too many security issues
cd ../firefox3 ; make # is OK, & runs on 8.0 i686, but on
amd64 fails with
GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times
so I'm pausing for perspective, comment invited :-)
Cheers,

Is it a possibility for you to add something like this to your
~/.login_conf
me:\
:umask=027:\
:lang=C:\
:charset=en_US.ISO8859-1:\
:coredumpsize=0
Of course, adjust accordingly.
Maybe you could just run it in a different class that you can setup
globally in your login.conf as well so you do not have to turn off core
dumps for your user entirely.
At least you wont have the core dumps but this may not exactly be what you
are looking for.
Best of luck.
