Perhaps recompile firefox *without* the "debug" USE flag? Do you
actually need debug symbols compiled into the application? They often
cause errors for "normal" users, which is why the flag is generally not
enabled.

ok, thanks, I compiled without "debug" changing:

 +debug +gnome +ipv6 -java -mozcalendar -mozdevelop -moznoxft -mozsvg
 +truetype -xinerama +xprint

in:

 -debug +gnome +ipv6 -java -mozcalendar -mozdevelop -moznoxft -mozsvg
  +truetype -xinerama -xprint 

and now it works perfectly...

thanks

Giulio
