Neither firefox nor mozilla will run any more. Every time I run them I get the following error:
The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
(Details: serial 2935 error_code 2 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
I don't know what broke Gecko exactly. A search on this forum revealed that people got a similar message because of the flash plugin. I don't have the flash plugin installed so thats not the issue.
I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox and that didn't help. Any ideas?

hmmm...well I booted to openbox and firefox ran fine. Is this a conflict with fluxbox-devel? I've been running it for two days with no problems.
Any way to debug this?

Run ldd on /opt/mozilla/lib/firefox-1.0.2/firefox-bin, others are just scripts

hmmm, you may be right... it looks like it might be a fluxbox issue, and not firefox at all - check their IRC/bug tracker/whatever and see if there's any mention of something similar

Wow how bizarre. I changed the theme, restarted X and firefox worked fine. So then I changed it back to the original theme and its working again.
I need a fluxbox exorcist...
