1) remove the firefox-directory
rm -rf .mozilla
Actually it does not matter whether you remove this directory or not.
2) start mozilla-firefox
mozilla-firefox
3) enter www.greatandhra.com in the location bar
4) Go to the link titled 'home'
After this firefox crashes and the errors on the console are
$mozilla-firefox

The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadShmSeg (invalid shared segment parameter)'.
(Details: serial 262 error_code 172 request_code 149 minor_code 2)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()
function.)
I looked in the mozilla-firefox bugs list. The problem looks somewhat
similar to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=281476
thanks for any input
