On the odd occasion it does not freeze, refreshing the page will cause the browser to lock up. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start mozilla 2. Attempt to visit a url (a variety tried, including http://www.google.com) 3. Browser locks up. Actual Results: Browser locks up, page is not displayed. Expected Results: Browser should download and display page. I have a similar machine, allbeit with less memory and a slower processor running RH8 with the same rpm's and am not experiencing the same problem on that machine. Both machines have fresh installs, neither have any form of plugin loaded. I'll attach an strace of the crash/freeze.

> I'll attach an strace of the crash/freeze. a stacktrace from gdb would probably be more useful does the same behavior exist if you use a non-xft build?

-> XFT master

Yeah, I need a stack trace because it's working just fine here.

After toying around with my second machine at work I became convinced that it must be a hardware with my home machine. I've tweaked back some of the settings in the bios, and lo and behold, it behaves itself. Apologies for taking up your time, but you're all doing a great job with Mozilla. Thanks.
