Hi, After a fresh install of RC1 (and emptying .kde and .kde4) firefox and thunderbird are not working. Both show (process:4432): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed when started from the command line. There are several posts (also very recent ones) on various ml's about this error message for FF and TB, but none on opensuse (and none with a solution which works for me). After first start of FF, the FF-window appears, with the entries on the main menu, but without the corresponding icons. Starting it a second - or third, fourth etc.) the icons appear also, and a subwindow which lists the sessions that could not be opened (which is all sessions). No input is taken from mouse or keyboard, and also closing the window does not work (intil KDE kicks in). Also - but maybe not related - some applications are very, very slow starting up. For example to start dolphin it takes 75 secs. To restart or shutdown from the KDE menu it takes 2 minutes for the little stop-menu to appear, and another 75 secs before the real shutdown is started after choosing restart or shutdown. Shutdown as root from a terminal has it's normal speed. What can be going on here? regards, Jogchum -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
