I'm running Slack 10.0. Yesterday, I installed dropline-gnome and now when i go 'linuxpackages.net' using either mozilla or firefox and try to type something in the search field, the program (firefox or mozilla) crash. I tried many options, deleted the firefox folder and downloaded a fresh one, tried using the package from 'linuxpackages.net' but nothing works.
When I rung them using the command prompt, i get the following error afte they crash

Is it something to do with dropline changing many packages?

Thanks

When you deleted Firefox, did you also remove the .firefox folder in your home directory? It could be corrupt. Try deleting it (please backup your bookmarks first or you will lose them) and then rerun Firefox. If that doesn't work, delete the ~./firefox directory and the Firefox .tgz package and try installing Firefox from source.

It is very possible. Did Firefox work without problems before installing DG? Maybe DG messed with a dependancy that Firefox needs. Sorry I can not be more of a help on this, I don't use DG.

I got this error as well. It may be dropline, it may not. I was getting it on my desktop computer with a precompiled linuxpackages.net package of firefox. That was on 9.1. After I installed 10.0 I never saw the error again, with the same package (I think).

I can confirm this. Firefox seems to crash on various text inputs on websites. It's hilarious since I can almost always reproduce it by simply going to google.com and typing in "f" as the first letter and it will IMMEDIATLY exit!

Anyone have any idea what this is? I am using firefox 0.9.3 on debian linux. I think I installed this program a few times to get it working at all.

I was having the same problem (on Slack). Thinking that dropline-gnome might have messed up the libraries, I reinstalled Slack and everything is working great now(without dropline). I don't know how it can be resolved.
