Firefox installation segmentation fault
I am trying to install Firefox 1.0.6 on my Mandrake 10.1 system. This can only be done by tarball which i extracted (from the official mozilla site). Now when I try to issue the commands to install the program, i get the first gui dialog box, when I click 'forward/next', the installer crashes, with this message:
// the first command is to run the installer in the current directory :) ----------output start---------- ./firefox-installer SCIM: im_module_init free(): invalid pointer 0x81f4658! free(): invalid pointer 0x81f4630! ./firefox-installer: line 56: 13959 Segmentation fault ./${BINNAME}-bin $@ [roothomenet]# ./firefox-installer SCIM: im_module_init free(): invalid pointer 0x81f02a8! free(): invalid pointer 0x81f0280! ./firefox-installer: line 56: 13978 Segmentation fault ./${BINNAME}-bin $@ ------------ end of output--------- Now i also tried to install thunderbird and got a very similar message: [root@homenet]# ./thunderbird SCIM: im_module_init free(): invalid pointer 0x8e95ac8! free(): invalid pointer 0x8e95aa0! can anyone tell me what might be wrong with this? thanks |

Thank you for your reply. I have got the instructions from the url you gave - not had the chance to try it yet but i'm hopeful it will work when i do.
many thanks |
:scratch: ive managed to get firefox installed now. but can anyone please tell me where i will find the startup script for this program please? i.e the one that begins with !#bin bash
thanks |
