Re: Linux's SeaMonkey freezes after saving a file.
Weird!! I no longer have freeze ups after saving something. I didn't change anything! Maybe apt-get update and upgrade changed something recently. I will follow-up if it happens again.

Mostly everything works, but I noticed saving files cause SM to freeze hard. CPU usage is in used from SM.
