I'm not using 0.8 because it seemed to have rather a lot of bugs when I tried it recently. ACCheck your Java install. The site has a java ticker app (why, I don't know). That's probably what's causing the crash.No, about:olugins shows that java is installed. AC
As a Debian newbie, I immediately went to aboutdebian.com. Using mozilla/1.6 masquarading as IE6 on RH9,..;) Mozilla crashes big time. Firefox 0.6 (no java plugin) on WinXP is fine. I don't have Firefox on this RH9 machine. The funny thing is that yesterday for a long period, I got repeated crashes when using Mozilla/Mozilla Mail to visit aboutdebian.com, debian.org and reading the mailbox I've set for the debian users list. Mozilla loads aboutdebian.com and even scrolls up and down about, but it will eventially crash..java scrolly thingy works fine. Debian.org crashes my Mozilla (including desktop) immediately..never even finishes loading. There was one particular message in my debian-user mailbox about kernel problems that crashed my whole desktop (logged me out) everytime I highlighted it. I got that one message deleted by hand and all is well with the mailbox again. I just visit debian.org and aboutdebian.com now with Konqueror. I've been lurking here for a couple of months now, using all the fine info to setup a new Debian server...migrating from an old Cobalt RaQ2. Thanks all for the great info. -- Diana - e-mail address is munged.
