Hi,

thanks for your support.

I have created a new profile without any addons/extensions. This works
so far....BUT...I get this on the commandline while starting FF as
normal user:

(firefox:2626): dconf-WARNING **: Unable to open 
/root/.local/share/dconf/profile/user: Permission denied
*** UTM:SVC TimerManager:registerTimer called after profile-before-change 
notification. Ignoring timer registration for id: telemetry_modules_ping


What the .... is FF trying to do with my root-Account ?

I am irritated...
