If i run it from terminal the same thing happens, it crashes so fast I can not read the terminal out put. As it crashed it logs me out, when I log back terminal is not open, does that mean when it crashes its possibly taking down X?
By the way, these were fresh installs and its reproducible on 3 different machines.

after a few dozen retries word by word i made out could not load module "xapp-gtk3-module"

so I went into synaptic and installed it. However the problem persists and I there is no visible output when running Palemoon from terminal now.
