Re: Mozilla V1.3.1 crashing on FreeBSD 5.1-C (older cvsup level)

Joe,
I cvsuped my ports tree and portupgraded mozilla and mozilla-gtk2 (I 
never noticed there were two flavors installed until now.)
As a quick sidenote, the descriptions of the two ports are functionally 
identical.  I noticed minor toolbar differences and some font 
differences and in the tests that I'm going to describe mozilla-gtk2 
appears more resilient.   Is one recommended over the other?

Getting back to business...
Using Mozilla-gtk2 (v1.4):
A window appears with "Default Plugin" in the title bar.
The exact text is: This page contains information of a type
(application/x-shockwave-flash) that can only be viewed with
the appropriate Plug-in.  Click OK to download Plugin."
 

When I close out of Mozilla-gtk2 the following appears in the terminal 
window:
$ mozilla-gtk2
No running window found.
/dev/dsp: No such file or directory
 

(mozilla-bin:62160): Gtk-WARNING **: A floating object was finalized.
This means that someone called g_object_unref() on an object that had
only a floating reference; the initial floating reference is not owned
by anyone and must be removed with gtk_object_sink() after a normal
reference is obtained with g_object_ref().
$
 

I don't know if this is something I have to worry about.
The plus side is, Mozilla-gtk2 (v1.4) does not crash.
 

When I try Mozilla V1.4 I can very briefly see the page painting before
mozilla crashes.  The messages are a little different:
$ mozilla
No running window found.
/dev/dsp: No such file or directory
open dsp: No such file or directory
Gdk-ERROR **: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)
   serial 26 error_code 10 request_code 147 minor_code 1
$ echo $DISPLAY
Stargate.Tom.Parquette.name:0
$
 

pkg_info indicates I have "flashplugin-mozilla-0.4.10_2 A GPL standalone 
Flash (TM) plugin for Mozilla web browser"
  installed.  I have not checked to see if the plugin needs to be 
upgraded yet because I'm looking for a misconfigure for the plugins.

Thanks for your help.
