Summary | 0005380: Kali Linux on Raspberry pi3b+ fresh install using Ether - browser firefox crashes when oppened | ||||
Description | Every time I open firefox, it crashes. I then loaded it from the command line and the crash says "segmentation fault". | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Open the firefox browser on the GUI of a fresh install on raspberry pi3 b+. | ||||
I'm going to guess that you're using the 64bit image? If so, this is unfortunately a bug in the Firefox ESR package for arm64. The upstream Debian bug is https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=906570 - A possible workaround is to use Chromium, though you will need to make a couple modifications to the launcher as Chromium doesn't like being run as root, or you will need to launch it from the command line to pass the arguments. |
|
Also, can you please give the output of "apt policy firefox-esr" so I can see which version of firefox-esr you're running? |
|
Is this still an issue for you? The latest firefox-esr packages are working here on both arm and arm64. |
|
Due to the age of the OS (Kali Moto [v1], Kali Safi [v2], Kali Rolling <= 2019.2), these legacy versions are no longer supported. Please could you see if you are able to replicate this issue with the latest version of Kali Linux - https://www.kali.org/downloads/? If you are still facing the same problem, feel free to re-open the ticket. If you choose to do this, could you provide more information to the issue you are facing, and also give information about your setup? |
