Hello. I'm quite unhappy with firefox3 on a 6.3p8/i386 and I'm in need advices on how to fix this. I use Firefox to display some sites that Konqueror won't work with, but it is highly unstable. As soon as I visit some sites, it locks up instantly; with others it might work or not, depending on I don't know what: it might stand that it locks more frequently if I click somewhere without waiting for the page to load fully, but I'm not sure about this. Am I the only one experiencing this problem? Furthermore, when it locks, it's unkillable. Here's what I have after killing -9 firefox-bin. %ps ax | grep firef 13158 ?? I 0:00.01 /bin/sh /usr/local/bin/firefox3 13162 ?? I 0:00.01 /bin/sh /usr/local/lib/firefox3/run-mozilla.sh /usr/local/lib/firefo 13167 ?? T 0:39.83 /usr/local/lib/firefox3/firefox-bin 35238 p9 R+ 0:00.00 grep firef I read "T" means stopped state, but I don't really know what that means and how to cope. Finally, just an annoyance, but might be related: everytime I start it, even if closed regularly on the previous run, it displays a dialog saying: "Your last Firefox session closed unexpectedly. You can restore the tabs and windows from your previous session, or start a new session if you think the problem was related to a page you were viewing." and asking me whether I want to start a new session or restore the previuous one Both choices lead up to a blank window (that's what I want). bye & Thanks av.
