Hard to trim this, so I'll leave as it.

Right, having battled with 2.10 _and_ 2.12, both crashing, I reread your
email, and noticed you had to install firefox, so I reinstalled 2.10
with a Debian patch and using:

--with-mozilla=firefox

instead of the default mozilla, and voila, it worked.

Thanks again.
