Hi Brian. I've just tried firefox 2.0.0.12, and it gives the same result:
soleil:bin:26 > ./firefox The program 'firefox-bin' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length erro'. (Details: serial 10 error_code 16 request_code 128 minor_code 4) ... The software is installed from the pkgadd format, onto a Sun v245, running Solaris 10. soleil:bin:27 > uname -a SunOS soleil.county.oxford.on.ca 5.10 Generic_125100-07 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V245 Display is set to my desktop, which is a Mac running OS X 10.4.11, with Apple's X11 installed. All other X apps that I run on the Sun v245 and display on the Mac seem to work fine. Thanks for your attention!
