Adobe crashes for me every time:
athena$ mozilla http://www.adobe.com/
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 131 (MIT-SHM)
Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_ShmPutImage)
Serial number of failed request: 63
Current serial number in output stream: 63
with no further keystrokes. Right this second I'm also getting it
from nytimes.com, but the site requires an account:
