I had to also do this:

(5) adsl 4:15pm /usr/lib> ln -s libstdc++-libc6.1-1.1.so.2 libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3

...and now it works perfectly, although I am seeing a lot of this error:

nsLayoutHistoryState::GetState, ERROR getting History state for the key

I tried compiling it myself from the source, using:

./configure --disable-mailnews --disable-tests --enable-x11-shm
--enable-optimize --disable-debug --enable-stript-libs --disable-double-buffer

...and replacing -g -O2 with -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer, and it compiled
fine and ran very quickly, although the version number keeps saying
"1999122808" from
dist/bin/chrome/navigator/locale/en-US/navigator.dtd:<!ENTITY
buildId.label "Build ID: 1999122808">
and
xpfe/browser/resources/locale/en-US/navigator.dtd:<!ENTITY  buildId.label
"Build ID: 1999122808">
although I was careful to grab the latest nightly source tarball and then
later the official M13 source tarball ... any ideas?


Thanks,
Peter

Hmm...maybe you should get the new libstdc++ instead of faking the link? :-)

It still seems to wait forever at
  	nNCL: registering deferred (0)

Maybe my machine is too slow (7200/90 with 16MB)???

Known bug.  Mostly harmless.  Ignore it.  (Hey, this is still alpha-level
software; don't be surprised at a few bugs.)

Hope this helps,
