https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=403659 Summary: Firefox 3 reports free(): invalid pointer and hangs Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Firefox AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: Markus.Kuhn@cl.cam.ac.uk QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Other I just received on a freshly updated openSUSE 11 (final) the online update to MozillaFirefox-3.0-0.1: Mozilla Firefox Web Browser MozillaFirefox-translations-3.0-0.1: Translations for MozillaFirefox I also have installed mozilla-xulrunner190-1.9.0-0.1: Mozilla Runtime Environment 1.9 mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs-1.9.0-0.1: XULRunner components depending on gnome-vfs mozilla-xulrunner181-1.8.1.13-22.1: Mozilla Runtime Environment 1.8.1.x mozilla-xulrunner190-translations-1.9.0-0.1: Translations for XULRunner 1.9 While the previous beta version that came with the original openSUSE 11 distribution ran fine, the online-updated final Firefox 3 asks me only in a pop-up window whether I want to restore the previous session or start a new one, and when I click either option, it writes to stdout the following "glibc detected" message and then hangs (no main window opens): $ firefox New crash observer App startup [1214390495925] (4): Skipping no location: chrome://global/content/commonDialog.xul
