Hi,
What I find interesting from this mail thread and all follow up emails is that
there is no indication that the original problem has anything to do with the
~/.Xauthority and /etc/hosts solution of the other person.
There can be so many causes of a signal 11.
What Nuru needs to do is run a debugger on the firefox.core file and try to get
a stacktrace of the error.
From the top of my head:
$ lldb --core <path-to/firefox.core> --file /usr/local/bin/firefox
bt
You might need to recompile firefox with DEBUG option enabled to get any
sensible output of the debugger. I don't have a lot of experience debugging
firefox.
NB: What version of FreeBSD are you running? Send the output of: uname -a
Regards,
Ronald.

Hello,
I have had the same problem. The problem is not only with firefox, it is also
valid with thunderbird in my experience.
I have debugged a bit using truss(1) and identified that the ~/.Xauthority file
and /etc/hosts is the problem. Actually, the problem is firefox and
thunderbird, but the initiators are them.
Check what display-names are displayed with `xauth list`. If you see a display
name as an invalid host in /etc/hosts, simply remove it with `xauth remove`.
My problem is that I changed the hostname, and it stayed after a firefox
upgrade, so I had two entries with an invalid hostname and a valid hostname in
.Xauthority.
See also /etc/hosts to see if there is an invalid host or check if you do not
have any entries where a host (such as your hostname) is missing.

Hello to all,
Is anyone experience firefox crashes? For a long time that I did not see so many crashes.
It core dumped to firefox.core, can I do something usefull with .core to get an
ideia of what is causing it?
"pid 28063 (firefox), jid 0, uid 1001: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)"
Cheers,
