[gentoo-user] Multiple Firefox v1.5 Instances

2006-01-19 Thread Richard Ruth
When I was using FireFox v 1.04 I could start multiple
instances of FireFox by starting FireFox like this:
   /usr/bin/firefox -ProfileManager

Now that I am using FireFox V1.5 (Deer Park), if
FireFox is already running, /usr/bin/firefox
-ProfileManager does not start the profile manager,
instead a new FireFox window of the already running
FireFox is started.

How do I start a second instance of FireFox V1.5?

(I want to do this because I have different proxy
settings, etc. with each different profile.)

Thanks

There is no need to start a second instance of Firefox just to change
your proxy settings; there are several extensions that allow you to
manage your proxy settings on the fly:

SwitchProxyTool:
https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=125application=firefox

QuickProxy:
https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=1557application=firefox

xyzproxy:
https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=1273application=firefox

You might also find

Quick Preference Button:
https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=1851application=firefox

useful.

HTH,
Holly
