Follow-up to all, I just found a similar report in the Sept archive titled Mozilla/Galeon crashing on startup. In that report it states that both Galeon and Mozilla crash if any other theme desktop theme is used beyond the default. Once I changed my theme back to Bluecurve all was working again. Thanks Phil I am having the same problem. Here is the odd part the problem only exist with my user account. Root and other user accounts work properly, so I deleted the user account, rebooted, readded that account and the problem still exists. Galeon exhibits the same behavior but Netscape works properly. Here are the errors that my terminal session reports when I run Galeon from command line. Also please note that Mozilla from command line fails but no errors are reported at the command line window. Galeon: Gdk-ERROR **: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) serial 7378 error_code 3 request_code 2 minor_code 0 Gdk-ERROR **: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) serial 7379 error_code 3 request_code 61 minor_code 0 Again only one user account experiences this issue and I have deleted and readded that user.

Try running `mozilla` from the commandline to see if you get any errors. Also, try moving his .mozilla profile.
