I'm getting a segfault also. I have SeaMonkey 1.1.6 installed.

Here is the output from gdb:

Sully, and PupMike,

please look, if you have a file /usr/lib/libgtkmozembed.so.

If yes, delete it.
The browser crashes, if it is a different version as for example:
/usr/lib/seamonkey/libgtkmozembed.so.

I had /usr/lib/libgtkmozembed.so in /usr/lib/ (copied from 1.1. Cool

, as it was required to compile the browser.
When I installed the same seamonkey 1.1.14 as Sullysat, puppybrowser crashed.
But to run it, the version, that comes with your newest nstalled brower must be available.
Using an older version in /usr/lib/ causes a crash.

Maybe you must run "ldconfig" or reboot, after you deleted it.

Mark,

I don't have that lib file anywhere on my system.

Hi Mark,

I updated Seamonkey using the standard Seamonkey update on their site. I tried recompiling PuppyBrowser with no difference. I'm starting to think there is a version conflict with the newer releases of Seamonkey. I made up a small C program to test the embeded moz control and I get the same seg fault. i did notice I got a linker warning with the C program that libstdc++.so.5 needed by gtkembedmoz may conflict with libstdc++.so.6. Maybe I need to get the source to gtkembedmoz and try compiling it here?

Thanks,
Mike

Sully,

I'm running out of ideas.
Please post the result of the two commands:

ldd PuppyBrowser | grep moz
echo $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME

You also could do, what I describe to Mike now:

Mike,

I just used the normal 1.1.16 installer from the mozilla website.
Puppybrowser works by adding thre lines to "/usr/local/PuppyBrowser/puppy-browser", so iit looks like this:

Thanks Mark! It was the MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME that I never did set. I had already fixed the other paths for the new install. Who would of thought Smile

I'll see if I can help with the tab issue now. Won't be till later though.
