Lovely regression.
If you have time, there are a couple of things to do here:
1: Watch virtual terminal #1 while starting that appliction. ie: in an
xterm (assuming you can open one) do
sleep 5; mozilla
then do a quick alt-shift-F1 before the sleep expires. See if
anything comes up on the console.
2: get netconsole working: see Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt
3: Performa a git bisection search, find the buggy patch. This is quite a
lot of work, and I hate asking people to do it because we don't (afaik)
have any particularly good documentation on how to perform it.
