recently my sister descovered a strange and serious bug with
mozilla-firefox-1.0.8 in combination with xorg-x11-6.8.2-r7. After
visiting
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=36939781
xorg shuts down immediatly direct access to the box via the terminal is
impossible. logging in remotley via ssh still works ...
can anyone with the above combination verify this ?
Yep. Killed my X too. I have these same versions of xorg and firefox.
Fortunately I got a kdm login prompt again. The only relevant messages I
could find in the logs:
# cat /var/log/messages
...
May 26 01:10:39 baikal kdm[11220]: X server for display :0 terminated
unexpectedly
...
# cat /var/log/kdm.log
...
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (normal): 0x096128c0 ***
...
You probably should file a bug.
Please post to the list if you have any new info on the subject.
