SeaMonkey Experimental build 3
Dave Yeo:
Hi Ivan, it needs most of the same DLLs as Firefox, excepting Hunspell and needing the libcx from the exp repository.
Here's the list that the RPM build of Firefox needs according to the command "yum deplist firefox". Note that not all these are needed, such as sh, bww-resources-rpm, os2-base and just the regular libc rather then the devel package. (Might need libc from exp)

Hi Bogdan, can you give an example?

Also sometimes I do not boot, but if I run first firefox or seamonkey the previous version and close it. It always starts me.
Here doing tests with virtuaadresslimit 512, I got this error in a trp that seems interesting
. It says memory failure, js, see the attachment. and do not start.
The previous version of seamonkey, can work with 512

Yes, this build will use a bit more memory due to change in optimization. virtualaddresslimit 512 probably needs to be changed to 1024 or larger.
Thanks for the report.

FTR: with an ignored TLS issue, and with an OS/2 Pentium 4 slower than a ThinkPad T42, the CPU load while browsing about:blank still is 100%. Getting there seems to happen slightly faster indeed.
David McKenna:
Thanks for building this, Dave! I'm having some strange trouble though, it works great until somewhere around the 3rd or 4th time I start it, the icon cross-hatches, but nothing appears on the screen. Doesn't appear in the task list either. This happens regardless of whether I reboot or not. I have 2 CPUs, and the CPU monitor shows 100% load bouncing back and forth from one CPU to the other. If I recopy the 2nd beta version over this one, then everything works fine again and continues working.
Unfortunately, TOP doesn't work on this machine (problems with OS/2 fullscreen sessions) so I can't look to see what is running when I try to start SeaMonkey in this state. Definitely a head scratcher...
