recently my sister descovered a strange and serious bug with
mozilla-firefox-1.0.8 in combination with xorg-x11-6.8.2-r7. After
visiting
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=36939781
xorg shuts down immediatly direct access to the box via the terminal
is
impossible. logging in remotley via ssh still works ...
can anyone with the above combination verify this ?
Yep. Killed my X too. I have these same versions of xorg and firefox.
Fortunately I got a kdm login prompt again. The only relevant messages
I could find in the logs:
# cat /var/log/messages
...
May 26 01:10:39 baikal kdm[11220]: X server for display :0 terminated
unexpectedly
...
# cat /var/log/kdm.log
...

You probably should file a bug.
Please post to the list if you have any new info on the subject.
Alexander, as you are the only one so far that can verify this bug, can
you post "about:plugins" to
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134373 ?
Hi Matthias,
I posted my system config as you requested.
But I can't reproduce this bug with the cached page.
MP3 Flash player seems to be working except I can't load/play
some songs from the list.
I don't have any popups I had with the real page either.
So it probably was one of the ads?
Sasha
