I had the same thing when I upgraded galeon and mozilla from the cooker. If 
you did this, try to start galeon from an xterm and you should see it 
complaining about an environment variable called MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME. You may 
also find that galeon still works when you su to root.

Don't bother trying to set the variable from the /usr/bin/galeon script - 
there is nothing actually wrong with it. I found that the only way to get it 
going again was to delete the ~./galeon directory. Just backup your bookmarks 
 and cookies first - import into netscape/mozilla if you can.

YMMV, but this worked for me
