I reckon you should get some more information about the circumstances surrounding the crashes before blaming your memory, but if you're not going to be around for a while, running memtest86 for 24 hours and seeing the result won't hurt.
Try running firefox in safe mode from an xterm: firefox -safe-mode If it still crashes, paste the output. If it doesn't crash, look into the extensions you've got installed. - James On Mon, Sep 15, 2008 at 10:00 PM, Heracles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > I recently added an extra gig of RAM to my machine bringing it up to > just 2 Gb. > I have tested the RAM with memtest86 and all seems well but Firefox (3 > and 2) and Galeon crash on me after a while.
