uzbl-tabbed 2010.03.14-1 when started shows an empty screen with an empty tabs header and browser body for a few (~5) seconds and quits.

After "rm -rf .config/uzbl .cache/uzbl" and killing all the running instances of uzbl parts, "uzbl-tabbed" outputs:

{'cookie_jar': '/home/uj/.local/share/uzbl/cookies.txt',
'cookie_socket': '/home/uj/.cache/uzbl/cookie_daemon_socket',
'cookie_whitelist': '/home/uj/.config/uzbl/cookie_whitelist',
'daemon_mode': True,
'daemon_timeout': 0,
'use_whitelist': False,
'verbose': True}

uzbl-tabbed: error: quit timeout expired, sending SIGTERM to uzbl instance

I checked uzbl-git from AUR and the only difference (apart from starting in background) is the last line:

** (uzbl-core:24076): WARNING **: Error connecting to socket: /tmp/uzbltabbed_24075.socket

works for me.

I ran uzbl-tabbed from a different user and it worked too.
Now, what should I check?

if i remember well in ~/.local/share/uzbl is stored the session. try clean that too

Thank you. Unfortunately, it didn't help.

after making sure there are no more uzbl processes, remove any leftover uzbl related files in /tmp and try again.

Thanks. Tried with no luck.
Uzbl 2010.04.03-1 in the repos no wonder behaves like from git:

** (uzbl-core:27377): WARNING **: Error connecting to socket: /tmp/uzbltabbed_27376.socket

I've found out that the culprit was unclutter.
When unclutter hides the pointer, uzbl-tabbed crashes like this. Otherwise it starts well.
Starting unclutter with so-called grabpointer method ("unclutter -grab") resolves the issue.
Nevertheless, it still might be the uzbl-tabbed bug. Even uzbl-browser works well with unclutter.

if you consider that is an upstream bug, please report it on uzbl bugtracker.
