Don't do this when using GWT on Linux. This might be OK on Windows GWT, I
don't know. The hosted mode browser (FireFox) starts automaticatlly when you
start hosted mode.

 If you want to see how hosted mode debugging works on Linux, please try the
StockWatcher tutorial. Considering your skill level, running that tutorial
will be a no-brainer.

I don't see a reference to mozill-hosted-browser.conf. It may be that the
reference is contained somewhere else in the 1.5 GWT development
environment. I don't know.

At this point, I'd really recommend getting the StockWatcher tutorial
running in your Gentoo environment. That will give you a feeling of
accomplishment and will provide a solid foundation to understand how to port
your app to Linux from Windows.
