From .xsession-errors:
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 7812 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.)

I don't know if this is related, since I am not getting errors in
.xsession-errors, but just today, I was trying to submit a job
application online and firefox crashed on me just as the page
loaded. I tried this several times with the same results. If I run
firefox from the command line it crashes with a segfault. This would
be with firefox 1.0.4-2sarge5. The same thing happens with mozilla
suite 1.7.8-1sarge3. Seamonkey 1.0, which was installed from the
mozilla site, however, does NOT seem to have this problem.

I just installed the latest firefox and thunderbird from the mozilla
website. The new firefox DOES NOT crash, while the old one (Debian
pkg) does :-(
I spoke too soon, causing me, once again, to respond to my own post.
I tried to load the page, again, in firefox from the mozilla site. It
did not crash, but it did say that it needed the java plugin. After I
added a link to libjavaplugin_oji.so to its plugin directory it also
crashes.
Seamonkey did NOT say that it required the java plugin, but there were
no entries other than libnullplugin in its plugin directory. Once I
added the links there, it also started crashing.
I recently changed to Java 5, so I decided to see if going back to 1.4
would solve the problem. It does not.
I shall return to java 5 and the Debian packaged firefox since they seem
to be no worse than any other.
BTW: Opera, which came packaged with java, does NOT crash.
