Angry Opera = Segmentation Fault


I was beginning to write that post in Opera 3 times, because it crashed. Then I openned Galeon, but it ALSO crashed! Then I returned to my new downloaded verion of Mozilla 1.2.1, and finally I am writing the post..................

5 Days ago I have installed Opera 6.1, at first everything was running perfectly. Today I wanted to open the page, which yesterday was working fine! But today it and Opera crashed. So now every page openned in Opera crash it (opera). I have returned back to version 6.03, ( unusually, it worked very fast! ), but 6.03 also segfaulted, very oftenly!

Maybe someone has similar problems? Any ideas are appreciated because Opera is my beloved browser...............

I had the same problem when I Installed Opera 6.1 the first time, then reinstalled the static version, then stopped crashing.

But until yesterday I was having problems with the X, the memory used was about 140M, and started crashing other applications... Then I stopped using opera I my X its back to normal again ...

An other friend had the same problem too, maybe it's somethig about that new version...

That could be a reason, I didn't even tried to find out why the opera was crashing for the first time, but I'm sure was his fault that X was locking cash in it then causing a unrational use of memory ...

If you want to find of exactly you could use strace, but will take a lot of work ...
