Hello guys, I've installed FF3.0.1 on my Solaris 10 (AMD64) workstation but as soon as I hit Ctrl-P (or use the menu) to print a page, FF locks up. I've already posted a message to some Opensolaris.org forums. Has anyone seen this happening before? I've also have a truss output of the time I hit Ctrl-P and the main LWP dies with a SIGSEV .
