Description Johannes Meixner 2005-08-30 14:27:14 UTC

I have 9.3 beta3 mozilla-1.7.11-9 installed on nelson.suse.de

Right now it crashed for the first time during printing
https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=47426
and in the terminal window from which I have started mozilla
there was

*** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption (fast): 0x43195c57 ***

It worked for a second attempt - i.e. I cannot reproduce it.

Those glibc error messages occur occasionally. That's strange but I never was able to reproduce it while debugging. (They happen with other applications as well)
