Public bug reported:

Config: Karmic Koala and CE running on Ubuntu server.

This started as a problem getting Design Studio to display the Test
screen for HelloWorld.xaction in Getting Started. There's a thread in
the Community Forum on this. I found a dependence missing: libxpcom.so.
As locate found it in a "xul" directory, Synaptic reported that package
xulrunner provided XUL and XPCOM so I installed it. Presto, Design
Studio can display the test screen but a lot of things got removed, e.g.
firefox and eclipse, so this was a concern. I started the BI Server,
loaded HelloWorld.xaction into Design Studio, configure it with name and
message, then selected the Test capability. Presto, Design Studio can
"GenerateURL" for the action sequence but, when attempting to "Test
Server" I get the SIGSEGV.

OK, so I guess xulrunner is obsolete and I went back to xulrunner-1.9.1
then reinstalled the things that got removed. Presto, I can't Test
HelloWorld again but firefox is back. It may be that the symbolic links
to xul libraries in /usr/lib have not been correctly updated to reflect
the latest (?) version 1.9.1.9. I'll investigate tomorrow and fiddle
with the symbolic links trying to have everything point to 1.9.1.9 as is
possible.

Config:
Eclipse 3.2.2, Ubuntu server 9.10, Pentaho CE version 3.5.2
