I reread the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs #Crashes "there is no dbg package created yet for Firefox3 beta users" and use "firefox-3.0-dbgsym and xulrunner-1.9-dbgsym" was as I did last night.
The second point there could be clearer about having to actually start gdb by typing gdb to terminal rather than expecting it as the outcome of the firefox line. Anyhow using gdb [run ; bt full ; thread apply all backtrace full ; quit] gave no result suggesting No stack. No registers. The second part [Obtain a backtrace from an apport crash report (using gdb)] which I hadn't tried previously then contains elementary errors like "/usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: No such file or directory." So I'm thinking having no dbg package atm is going to prevent us getting a good backtrace?? $ TMPDIR=$(mktemp -d) $ apport-unpack /var/crash/_usr_lib_firefox_firefox-bin.1000.crash $TMPDIR [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/crash/_usr_lib_firefox_firefox-bin.1000.crash' $ gdb -nx /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin -core $TMPDIR/CoreDump -ex 'backtrace full' -ex 'thread apply all backtrace full' -ex 'quit' 2>&1 | tee gdb.log GNU gdb 6.8-debian Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
