It is not as reproducable as in your case. Apart from that one printout,
I didn't manage to get a second one in several attempts. It crashes
also, if the page(s) are printed to a file, thus it may be possible,
that you encounter the same problem. But since you have mentioned
Mozilla, I also did the printing test with it (Mozilla 1.0.0), and it
crashes, too (already at the first attempt). Thus, the bug is presumably
related to the rendering machine or to a lib used by Galeon and Mozilla.

Do you also use lprng as a printing system (Version 3.8.10-1)?

I switched to Galeon, because Mozilla lacks the window frame, thus
cannot be resized, which makes it almost unusable. I am surprised that
these bugs don't show up in the bug tracking list. May it be possible
that parts of it are related to that I am not using the Gnome desktop
environment?


Best wishes.

Kerstin
