Well, the strace output doesn't match what I'd expect to see, but based on
everything else you say I strongly suspect this is a known Firefox bug which
affects Sun Ray Linux environments
(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435683).
The only workaround for FF 3 at this time is to unset LD_PRELOAD before running
it, but then you don't get audio.
Do things work if you unset LD_PRELOAD?
The FF bug is claimed to have been fixed in FF 4, but I don't know if anyone
has verified this. Is anyone out there running FF 4 on Linux with Sun Ray at
this point? Does audio work?
On Solaris, FireFox has been patched to support $AUDIODEV, so $LD_PRELOAD is
not required and this issue is averted. But that model is not supported on
Linux.

hello,
on my centos 5.2 server, i've just recompiled the modules for usb devices
(utdisk), and rebooted to activate.
But after the reboot, when starting firefox, it hangs without displaying, the
only things i've changed are the modules:
utdisk, utio and utadem
the usb devices are correctly showed now.
The problem occurs with firefox or thunderbird.
I can start firefox on sunray server and display on other machine, it works
i can start firefox on a remote machine and display on the sunray dtu and it
works.
But starting firefox on the dtu hangs. So i guess it has to do with the DISPLAY
on DTU?
Using strace, here are the latest messages:
