I tried commenting out all debug-related lines and functions on run-mozilla.sh, and disabling memory and disk cache completely in about:config (just in case), but it crashes anyway with the same error...

Meanie, do you have ipk's?

That's an annoying bug that. Sometimes closing down other programs "makes it work" again. Sometimes I have to open other programs then close them down to "make it work" again. As a last resort restart X. Same with Mozilla. Also ometimes when one of Firefox/Mozilla fails the other works  

Meanie: you should've posted your solution here at the time you solved it so you wouldn't forget what you did

Just tried Konqueror. It needed the libstdcxx5-compat package (I found it in Meanie's feed).
Opens quite fast and looks good... but https is not supported. Also, it complains about scripts taking too long, and reloads the pages unexpectedly while I am trying to read them. Maybe I'm asking too much, but for me it's not usable enough.

At least it hasn't crashed yet...

Is there any chance to get Opera to work on pdaXrom?

I don't mean to butt in as I don't use pdaXrom, but why couldn't Opera for linux run on pdaXrom?

I plan on getting a second Zaurus next year and flashing pdaXrom onto it, but would like to see Opera and Picsel Browser run on it.

I don't think there are Opera builds for ARM processors...

Possibly there are no suitable packages on that page. However the original Sharp Rom has Opera installed (Cacko also uses it), but I guess this is built for Qtopia and wont run on pdaXrom... or?

I am mostly in the "Dillo for anything I can make work, firefox for everything else" camp.

But when I am at home, I SSH into my linux box and run firefox from there.  It works great.  Much faster, takes less memory, and has plugins included.

The PC, by the way, cost me $30 off craigslist and I run Damn Small Linux on it.  

I am not sure why more zaurus users don't use it as an X thin client.
