Package: mozilla-firefox Version: 1.0.6-5 Severity: normal When I visit http://www-personal.umich.edu/~lotfmina/photography/, firefox crashes immediately and prints the following error message to the console:
The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 23860 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) A similar error is also obtained from epiphany under the same conditions: (epiphany:25250): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?) The program 'epiphany' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 9239 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) This leads me to believe that the bug is located in Gecko. The crash seems to occur only on AMD64; stew in #debian was unable to reproduce it on x86, and somiaj in #debian-amd64 confirmed it with sid's firefox (1.0.7-1). -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (1050, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-amd64-k8 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages mozilla-firefox depends on: ii debianutils 2.14.3 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.3.2-1 generic font configuration library ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2.4 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.0.2-2 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.8.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.6.10-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libidl0 0.8.5-1 library for parsing CORBA IDL file ii libjpeg62 6b-10 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libkrb53 1.3.6-5 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libpango1.0-0 1.8.2-3 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-1 PNG library - runtime ii libstdc++6 4.0.2-2 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.7-1 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxinerama1 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System multi-head display ii libxp6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System printing extension ii libxt6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii psmisc 21.6-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-4 compression library - runtime mozilla-firefox recommends no packages. -- no debconf information
