when you say bugzilla is inaccessible, do you mean inaccessible to 
text browsers or do you mean inaccessible period.

There are times when gnopernicus locks my system, and I have no idea what causes it since I can't debug it since I can't access a text console when it does this. The other thing I notice is that I get almost nothing out of it with mozilla, meaning that  about the only thing I can do with it is load mozilla, and go to sites. I'm getting little to no feedback when I try to read webpages with it, so I gave up on the mozilla part of it
