I don't really get on the upgrade treadmill.  I've been running Firefox 84 on
Fedora 23 or something for awhile.  Its in a VM  I had a system issue with the host and
had to do a reinstall and upgraded to fc 36.  Everything was fine, running my fc 23
VM's on a fc 36 host.  I'm on a different VM, my "fun" VM as I write
this, which also runs Firefox 84 on fc 23 with no problems.  I'll upgrage at some
point.
The VM with the issues is my "finance" VM.  I use it for my credit cards and
banking and all that.  Banks started to complain about my Firefox 84, so I tried to
upgrade to 113.  It crashes.  A lot.  So, I built a new VM with fc 38.  And installed
Firefox 115.  It crashes almost immediately.  But I was able to get some forensics.  Its
complaining that it is sending a 64 bit code to a subsystem that "doesn't support
it".  Implying that there is a 32 bit library somewhere.
I sort of do need to log in to banks and all that.  Any thoughs or suggestions?  It seems
really unlikely that there would be a 32 bit library somewhere.
Desktop browsers and Firefox are getting increasingly less mindshare.  Is this just EOL
thrashing?
Any thoughts?
As you may have guessed, the hardware is pretty old, but I don't see where that would
be an issue with this.
