Hi,
I've just downloaded version 25.4.1 for linux x86_64 and palemoon crashes with error
GThread-ERROR **: GThread system may only be initialized once
Version 25.3.2 works without problem. I admit i have this old distro (fc11). What could be the problem?

Re: Palemoon 25.4.1
I'm guessing that it is related to a fix included in 25.4 regarding GLib (viewtopic.php?f=37&t=7896).
Since your distro has not been supported for nearly 5 years now, I'd suggest running Pale Moon on a newer release.

Ok, it wasnt about my config per se, but then i think with this change that maybe Centos 6.x wont be able to run palemoon, and it is still supported for many years... Maybe someone could try it...

Re: GThread-ERROR with Pale Moon 25.4.1
Sorry, that thread didn't really apply to this problem, I just provided the link for information regarding the GLib fix included in 25.4.1dmc_dtc wrote:Ok, it wasnt about my config per se,
Release versions of Pale Moon are built using CentOS 6.5. I can verify that I don't encounter any issues running it on my CentOS boxes.dmc_dtc wrote:but then i think with this change that maybe Centos 6.x wont be able to run palemoon, and it is still supported for many years...

Also, CentOS 6 has newer packages then even a fully updated Fedora 11 does (such as GLib, GTK, etc).

Thank you, i shall try it on Centos, but also to update my glib/gtk

FC11 EOL'd 2010-06-25 it is not maintained and gets no new packages or security updates. AKA it is ancient.. While CentOS 6.x is based somewhere around FC 12 and 14.. But it is fully supported and gets security updates.
I would recommend you switch to CentOS 6 because it is the only Fedora based distro that is closest to what you use that gets updates.
