System name:		phantom.mit.edu
Type and version:	i686 9.4.34 (with mkserv)
Display type:		Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		fvwm2

What were you trying to do?
hit 'print preview' or 'print' from the firefox file menu.
(this is with many different web pages including web.mit.edu
and continues after I move my entire firefox profile directory
aside and delete profile.ini and start over).

What's wrong:
print preview brings up the 'processing' dialog and then essentially
hangs (ps reveals all of the firefox processes are in wait state)

hitting 'print' in the file menu causes it to hang immediately and
never display the print dialog.
