At first run, I tried to start firefox under the local user of course. When that wouldn't work , I searched Google and found an old bug about similiar behavior that suggested running firefox as root the first time. Didn't help, so I'm stuck since it's uite some time I used FreeBSD. > Also try running firefox from a command line in an xterm, if you > haven't already done so, and see if there are any helpful error > messages. I'm starting it from commandline. It doesn't print any errors and exits after a second. Under root, it starts and gives me debugging messages. -- Fridtjof Busse BOFH Excuse #122: because Bill Gates is a Jehovah's witness and so nothing can work on St. Swithin's day. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
