Re: [expert] mozilla bug
hi norman, it works yeah ... but it sux to have mozilla crash on you when you are in the middle doing some important long business mail that you were composing. and of course, it also sux big time to save draft mails everytime. (not used to it on netscape 4.x) i checked with other people about this. their mozilla doesnt have that problem. they are running other distros. so i guess it could be something about the mozilla RPM in MDK 9. im still investigating. dianne --- Norman Zhang [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: John Haywood wrote: Instead just mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla.old, then move stuff back until it crashes again.

Re: [expert] mozilla bug
listers not sure if this is related to the 'bug' but the problem i experience is that after sometime that mozilla was running properly, it crashes whenever i try to edit my preferences. it happened twice already and i still havent figure out why. the quick fix was to delete the contents of ~/.mozilla (make sure your mails are not in there though). dianne --- Michael Biddulph [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Fri, 25 Oct 2002 7:32 am, Lorne wrote: On Thursday 24 October 2002 09:20 pm, Norman Zhang wrote: Hi, I discovered a reproduced mozilla 1.1 bug in LM 9.0.

Re: [expert] mozilla bug
On my machine Mozilla just closes automatically. By selecting those key sequence. At first I thought I clicked the close button by accident. But I could repeat that by going through the Preferences... and mozilla quits. Obviously it is not reproducible on your machine. So the bug is more subtle. I did open mozilla mail and added some newsgroups and changed my email address before selecting \Edit\Preferences...\Mail Newsgroups\Addressing. I will tried again and report this to bugzilla. Sorry that I wasted your time.
