Unsure which forum was appropriate for mentioning this problem.
Attempts to print in Firefox 3 on my openSUSE 10.2 system invariably
result in a crash in which I get the following error message:
The application Gecko has crashed.
However, you don’t have installed bug buddy, the
GNOME crash report tool. If you want to help us
to make GNOME better, please, install it
Well, being that I am a KDE user, I don’t feel any particular
inclination to help with making Gnome better. Gecko was not intalled on
my system, so I installed it to see if that made any difference. It didn’t.
Perhaps I should have mention that my system is x86_64.

The advice given there does not work, in fact most of the firefox options described don’t seem to exist in Firefox 3. But maybe it will help someone else find a solution. I’m assuming that if we could force firefox to print via kprinter, it would bypass the bug.
Firefox version: 3.0.1 (same problem with 3.o.o) Operating system: Linux (openSUSE 10.2 32-Bit - KDE: 3.5 - Kernel: 2.6.18.8-0.5-xen)
After updating form FF 2.x to FF 3.x I can’t print web pages. When I try to do so, firefox closes and gives a message that “Gecko” has crashed. I have installed bug-buddy (though I am working with KDE) and created a report/log with bug-buddy. Its to long to attach it here. But I have posted it to the firefox support forum (FF 3 (linux) is crashing while I’m trying to print). I hope, this can help to solve our problem.
