General troubleshooting advice

things like segmentation faults

check the terminal for error messages

run without an rc

try a new profile

try other versions of xulrunner

newest version of conkeror, from git or nightly build, is almost always the best version to run, so see if you need to update.

check BreakingChanges if a problem seemed to appear out of nowhere in your rc after a conkeror update.

Segmentation Faults

Since Conkeror is a purely interpreted program, segfaults will almost always indicate a bug in XULRunner or a problem with its installation like file corruption or mismatched library versions. It could also indicate corruption in your profile. Try the following things:

• run with a new profile.
• reinstall XULRunner.
• try other versions, higher and lower, of XULRunner.
