I get a "grep: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.1/chrome/local.alias: No such file or
directory"
Then after a couple of seconds I get a Segmentation fault.
Obviously the file it can not find is local.alias and I don't have a clue what
it is for.
As a side issue is there a good scource that "maps" linux. I have yet to
figure out the method to the madness on the different libs and if I had some
idea where to start looking I could probably figure some of this stuff out.
