Crashes instantly after startup :/. Safe-Mode doesn't help.

I suspect it could have something to do with MESA; my gfx card is a bit oldish and had some trouble with newer applications. But SuperTuxKart and most games still do run, so this assumption is a bit shallow to go out and start to kick around my gfx-drivers.

Do you guys have any idea how to fix it? Using Chromium feels bad ;/. Setting up SeaMonkey right now, it works - at least for now.

Hi. Thank you! Installed what I could; can't resolve the problem that xul, fontconfig, gallium and linux gate are red even after installing the debuginfos I could find :s. But I'm not totally sure if it is successfully delivering the crash data as the "submitted" folder only contains 2 files, even though I repeated the attempt to start several times. The last submitted Bug-URL is https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/search/quick/?query=bp-e8bdb84e-527c-46c8-8138-6dccd0230618

But if I check the details in current crashes, I get: ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384; this, however is not submitted even though both the crash window and submit.log say so.

Yeah doesn't look any more helpful :( Strange, looks like GDB debugger or Firefox is not detecting the installed debug symbols or something. I'm afraid I don't know how to help more. Maybe also ask in an openSUSE forum/mailing list first to see if they would know where to look.

Will do that. Thank you for your time! :)
