[K12OSN] Crashing Firefox on terminal in new un-messed with install

["Jim Christiansen" <christiansen_j hotmail com>]

I wish it wasn't Friday afternoon...  I'll miss all of you guys for the 
weekend!

I've redone the install on my home test server of the new FC5 with Eric's 
new ltsp packages to confirm my troubles.  What happens on a client is that 
when even called by root, Firefox on certain pages (many) will crash with 
the following message in a console:

[root christiansens ~]# /opt/firefox/firefox
The program 'firefox-bin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
 (Details: serial 42238 error_code 11 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.)

On the server, the same webpage loads.  This page is nothing compliated on 
many of the crashing pages and this one is served off of my webserver.  The 
example crashing page is a large image.  Other pages that crash die so fast 
I don't even know what is on them...

I should have checked on the server to see how how the crashing webpages 
behaved days ago... This is my third install and I figured I was messing 
things up with plugins as all of the libraries may have been mixed up 
between 32 and 64 bit versions- but I guess this isn't the case.  Firefox 
dies even without any plugins installed.  No Acroread, java or flash...no 
audio, xine libs, mplayer plugins... nothing extra.

Any ideas appreciated!!  Fire away  :-)

Thanks,  Jim
