No luck! And now my other CURRENT system, my laptop has started doing
the exact same thing. I've completely deleted the linuxpluginwrapper,
but it didn't help.

I do notice that I get the following message on my terminal when I start
galeon:
(galeon-bin:2133): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: file gobject.c: line 1294 (g_object_add_weak_pointer): assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

This was with no plugins and the linuxpluginwrapper port deleted.

I will be leaving on travel Sunday and may not have much chance to try
things before Monday, so no need to rush any suggestions.

All ports are current as of yesterday morning.

Thanks,
