Gecko crash in Thunderbird/F8

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've recently installed F8 on my new Dell, and I've got a terrible annoying problem with Thunderbird...

If I launch Thunderbird, it opens fine. Every time I click to open and read any e-mail message, I get this pop-up Gecko Crashed window, and Thunderbird crashed back to the X Desktop. I can fix the problem by yum erase thunderbird, then yum install thunderbird. It works for ONE time I load thunderbird. As soon as I close Thunderbird, the problem starts over, and I cannot click to open/read any e-mail message again until I yum erase thunderbird, and yum install thunderbird.....!
I've tried:
1. checked all the log files in /var/log, but no errors post when thunderbird crashes
2. I've Deleted the files in the /tmp folder - no effect
3. I've checked google, and this list and thunderbird's support page - no help... 4. Interestingly enough, I can send mail, forward mail, reply to messages without any errors, and after a fresh re-install of Thunderbird, I can open and read mail without error, but ONLY until I close thunderbird once. After that, on the 2nd time I open thunderbird and every time after that, simply clicking to open a message causes thunderbird to crash with a gecko crash and thunderbird crashes back to the blank desktop....

My config:
New Dell Optiplex 755 with dual core intel 6750s, 2GB 800mhz. ATI X1650 dual-dvi card with dual monitors, Running F8 x586 with all the current patches as of 12-20-07, and Thunderbird 2.0.0.9
