Thanks for the heads-up on strace. Both sites result in segmentation errors, it seems because of True Type fonts:

open("/usr/share/fonts/zh_CN/TrueType/zysong.ttf", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---


and a different font withthe google search for emacs.


I couldn't tell that there was a dependable fix at the bugzilla page, and it seems that an attempt to fix it could result in not being able to get logged in via Gnome -- and I definitely don't want to risk that!


If anyone has ideas that I could try, please post!

Please try the rpms that I posted recently for testing to see if it solves this problem. The rpms that you want are all the Mozilla rpms listed here:

The bug that you are seeing is exactly the bug that update tries to solve.

Since upgrading from RH9 to FC1, Mozilla dies when I try to get
content from some particular sites:

url: www.google.com
search term: emacs
response from Mozilla: dies
frequency: 100% reproducible

When I try the same with Epiphany, it crashes, telling me that a
segmentation error has occured.

and another page: www.hootie.com/forum/
response from Mozilla: dies
frequency: 100% reproducible

Is anyone else experiencing the same behavior? I don't recall ever
having this experience under RH9, but it was using an earlier version
of Mozilla -- so I do not know if this is due to my upgrading to FC1
or a Mozilla bug.

Are there command lines that I could type to help diagnose the
problem?

Clint,

Yes, I had the a similar problem and it turned out to be a font problem described here:

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=109537

Do an "strace mozilla" and take a look at the log when it crashes.

If you are experiencing the same problem, I resolved it by following the suggestions in that discussion to remove the font-cache-1 files and rebuild them again.
