Hello.

I have an Aptiva computer that had a Knoppix installation on it. I tried a dist-upgrade in Knoppix and it did not go well. :( So, I installed Hardy Heron on the box, saving the /home as-is, but formatting everything else.

Now, with the new kubuntu 8.04 install, I get this message upon boot-up:

KDE Crash Handler
"The application unknown (nspluginviewer) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV)."

Do you think this is a legacy of my Knoppix install, a bug in Heron, or something I could easily fix myself?

thanks!

It may well be, I would suggest you backup your bookmarks and then delete ~/.mozilla, this is the directory where Firefox stores all it data and settings.
