    wondering if anyone coud help,bit of a weird problem with the internet browser; icecat 7.0.1 installed from source,the installation went fine. the specs in use is backtrack linux five [in a VM due to lack of dvd drive], firefox 4.0.1 with only no script & adblock plus addons installed,dont know if there coud be an issue between them both as icecat is the GNU version of it?:confused:

    this is a screenshot of the browser once opened:

    it just hangs like that and needs to be killed.

    when launching icecat from terminal it gives an error: 
    OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 0x7f7cba14fb00
OpenGL Warning: Retry with 0xc8 returned 1 visuals
OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 0x7f7cba14fb00
OpenGL Warning: Retry with 0xc8 returned 1 visuals
OpenGL Warning: XGetVisualInfo returned 0 visuals for 0x7f7cba14fb00
OpenGL Warning: Retry with 0xc8 returned 1 visuals
OpenGL Warning: Unimplemented glxMakeCurrent call with GLXPixmap passed, unexpected things might happen.

    woud love to get this up and running properly so does anyone have any ideas as to how to sort it?:confused:
    thanks:pac:

    ps.those who havent heard of icecat before can check the GNU site out for info:
