Heh, I can do you one better -- I have this happening regularly with
a Netscape 4.78 (with Linux emulation) and I got sick of this and 
switched over to native mozilla (from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/
releases/mozilla0.9.7/mozilla-i386-unknown-netbsdelf1.5.2.tar.gz) and 
it still happened!  I'm running code that I snagged before Christmas, 
so I'm sort of naively hoping that it'll be magically fixed when I 
slap a more recent kernel on there.

Does anybody have some tips on how to debug this sort of thing?
I tried setting a serial console, but then you can't run X!

Thanks,
