If a is one as you said in the other post, (a-1) is zero and thus you'll 
be dividing the expression by zero which is not allowed.

You're joking right?
You keep talking about how it could be better but you have not made a 
single DIRECT refrence to what is wrong with the current model. You keep 
comparing it to this and that and whatever.

I said it before, and I will say it again, you need to be *SPECIFIC* as

There are problems associated with only certain series of CPUs or maybe 
certain series of drivers supplied for a certain printer. You never 
know. That way it is possible to see if people with CPU X have a 
tendency to have more problems and people with CPU Y have a tendency to 
have another problem. etc.

If you have ever used bugzilla, you will find that the talkbacks are 
good contributors. If 10 people are crashing, it can be used to find a 
common factor of those 10 people using various data.

But the most important point is that it's optional.
If you don't want to use it, don't!

You have to make sure the fonts you mentioned are actually selected.

Two little corrections (because both of the people are using Linux) 
about your post.

a) the installation path doesn't contain mozilla.org on Linux
b) read-only is better phrased "having write permissions" for that file.

He continues to stick around these newgroups and criticize mozilla.
We *know* that mozilla has problems. Nobody is trying to hide that.
JTK has been here for god knows how long with his pointless whining

Netscape 6.2 is based on 0.9.4 and the latest mozilla milestone is 
0.9.8, and you will need to download a more recent version to have those 
features.

No. The problem is that you don't have PSM installed.
The error you are seeing indicates that, albeit it's unclear.
I think it was made a bit more cleared in recent builds.

You did a custom install and unselected PSM(Personal Security Manager).
It's required for accessing https.

How is it broken?

Have you tried running mozilla with strace and seeing if that shows 
anything out of the ordinary?

Have you tried running mozilla under gdb and figuring out how it's 
broken? If it just dies, you should be able to tell where.

When mozilla is loaded, the kernel caches the binary,the libraries that 
it loads and the files that it accesses.
Next time you start mozilla, it's much faster than the first time.

Let me guess. You were looking at 'top'?
It lied to you. The memory is shared by all the threads.
So that's not the reason it's swapping.

Process limits?
Do a "man bash" and search for "ulimit."

Well. In the Windows world maybe.

A file's name info is just meta-data for particular data block(s).
When you move a file across the same partition, the actual data blocks 
don't move. Just the meta-data record "moves" from one "directory" to 
another.

(I know that Windows is one exception. It won't let you move a file 
while it's opened. )

For example, on a Linux box. Take some kind log file that is being 
written to and rename it. tail the new file and the data will be written 
to the new file.

Or ... start downloading from an HTTP server and while you're 
downloading from it, delete the file on the server.
The download still continues.
The opened file handle is not associated with the file's meta-data.

Well. You misunderstood my comment. Mozilla only moves it after it's

It's been discussed before ... the reason being so that the download can 
actually begin before the user presses the 'Save' button and choses a

That way you only have one file.
