Thanks. I've been a slug and haven't gotten around to doing much with my Alpha other than cursing my inability to get firefox-3.0.3 to build. The journey started when I wanted to try building firefox-3.x, and discovered I needed to upgrade from etch to lenny to get the necessary library versions to even attempt a build. The good news is, gcc/g++-4.2.4 and the associated binutils will probably get the job done at some point, whereas I had to use gcc/g++-3.3 back in the firefox-2.0.0.13 timeframe: the 4.x compilers were badly confused by the mess that is the mozilla source tree. The bad news is, I can't get past the link step that builds libxul.so, regardless of which compiler version I use. Someone asked me why I don't try "iceweasel". I have... Version 3.0.1-1 bombs consistently with an illegal instruction, even if all plugins are disabled and my ".mozilla" directory is moved out of the way. I thought I might try looking at the iceweasel source package to see how Debian got around the libxul.so issue, and the answer seems to be "use xulrunner-dev". I might try that in a few days, but I've got a 2.6.27-final kernel build to do first :-). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bob Tracy | "I was a beta tester for dirt.
