Try upgrading to newer version of Fedora. 21 is the most recent stable
version.

If I were you I'd change to Debian or XUbuntu.

HTH,

I am experiencing some problems with pcb crashing/ not starting if firefox =
is running at the same time.<br>
Has anyone seen this behavior before? <br>
<br>
If pcb is already running:<br>
Once firefox is started, pcb will run for a while but any actions (such as =
opening the library window, zooming in, or opening the command line may mak=
e it crash. <br>
<br>
Firefox is already running:<br>
opening pcb results in the main pcb window opening for just a second, then =
shutting down immediately. The results are the same whether I start from th=
e main menu, command line, or clicking a filename in the file manager.<br>
<br>
The error is usually a segmentation fault in /var/log/messages:<br>

<br>
<br>
If I try to open pcb (w/ ff running) from a command line, I also get a dbus=
 error on stdout: <br>

ng for a few months at least. Unfortunately I can&#39;t pin it down to a ce=
rtain update or anything like that. I perform fairly regular updates every =
few weeks.<br>
<br>
The pcb version is=C2=A0 20110918 (the latest one in the Fedora repo) and t=
