Linux-firefox does not start
Hi, I installed www/linux-firefox from ports (FreeBSD 8.2/amd64). The first time it ran, it did some checks. During this time there was an unexpected power loss. Since then whenever I try to start linux-firefox, I get the error message An instance of firefox is already. Close it or restart your system. But no solution works. I even did a 'make deinstall' followed by 'make install clean' a couple of times. All of no avail. Can anyone please point out what I need to do to get linux-firefox to start ?

Thank you If firefox is really running, you may try killing it. To see if it's running, as root: ps aux |grep firefox One way of killing it (a dirty one): killall firefox OR look up the PID number for firefox (the first number from the left) that the above ps command shows you and kill PID-number-of-firefox Still struggling with getting Flash to work and that's why you installed linux-firefox instead of the native one? Sorry I didn't tell you last time more specifics than just following the Handbook, I thought it was detailed enough. How did you install the linux layer? Do you have linux kernel module loaded and the linproc filesystem mounted? -Jeff ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Your profile might have been damaged while it was being checked and the power loss occurred. Try $ mv .mozilla/firefox/ .mozilla/firefox.bak and start firefox again.

Re: Linux-firefox does not start
Firefox keeps a lock file at $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/{hash.something}/lock .
Delete that and try again. Or just run firefox -no-remote -P and
create another profile. You should find backups of your bookmarks in
the older profile's folder, so you can recover them.
Greetings,
Thomas

Yes, that's not the right plugin. Deinstall it and follow the Handbook Flash instructions: The flashplugin-mozilla port does indeed seem to be the wrong port and the nspluginwrapper port mentioned in the FreeBSD Handbook does indeed work, but there were a couple of glitches: 1) The plugin was installed in $HOME/.mozilla/plugins where Linux firefox executables also find it and then choke on the FreeBSD ELF file. I fixed the problem by moving the plugin to /usr/local/lib/firefox3/plugins. Using a single .directory for multiple browsers is probably a very bad idea if it contains stuff which is not the same for all versions of all browsers. I am not sure what a better alternative should look like. One possibility would be to have directories in $HOME/.mozilla with names like plugins-version-name. 2) The nspluginwrapper produces these warning messages: *** NSPlugin Viewer *** WARNING: unhandled variable 18 (unknown variable) in NPN_GetValue() *** NSPlugin Wrapper *** WARNING: unhandled variable 18 in NPP_GetValue() I can't solve this problem because the nspluginwrapper does not seem to come with any documentation. Documentation would be noce since the nspluginwrapper claims to support other types of plugin but gives no hint about how to install them.

How to make flash plugin work in linux-firefox

after you install acroread run nspluginwrapper -v -a -i.

The result is the same:
So basically the question is:
How can I tell FreeBSD where to find the requested lib??

you are looking for LD_LIBRARY_PATH
You should do this with ldconfig so its there all the time; but use the
linux compat one, not the freebsd base system one.
The port should have done this for you.

Let me ask this again, both for my own use, and for those folks (like me) who have googled this without success so far: if I wanted, as far as possible, to stay with FreeBSD-native apps (but willing to do whatever it takes, IF its the only way to success) how does someone get to having a browser run on FreeBSD, with the main requirement, that it run Flash. Oh. One more qualification (I can get a bit picky, I guess). I notice that there's a port for flashplugin9, not just 7. Is there ANY setup that allows flash9, not just flash7? The only limitation I keep active is, I don't run MS software. No Windows. I suppose, if it's the best way, I could even choose Wine (does this make me a Wino?)

flash: linux firefox vs linuxpluginwrapper
I've been struggling to get a handle on the FreeBSD system. Making good progress, but then I ran into the fact that Firefox on FreeBSD can't do flash. Definite showstopper, for me. Ok, then I tried to use the linuxpluginwrapper approach, and it didn't work. It made me recall, in reading up on FreeBSD, I did see where somebody installed both Firefox and Linx-firefox. So before I do battle with this Linux wrapper approach, I wondered if I would be better off simply installing the Linux-firefox? Is that easier? More likely to work? Does it perform almost as well as the native FreeBSD version? Any input would be appreciated.

RE: linux-firefox+flash=crash
Well, I have tried both plugins 7 and 9, they both seem to be giving me difficulties, I try installing from ports/packages, but still the same issues. Installation for version 7 seems a pain hence I have to crease symbolic links to browser_plugins in order for firefox to pick them up. I am not sure if the development team is working in a functional port for this for the upcoming release 7.0, I switch my desktop completely to FreeBSD 6.2-Release with updated xorg 7.2, still doing some of the administrative work in the Win boxes using rdesktop, but this OS seems pretty stable and when I am ready I am thinking of migrating all my Win Servers to FBSD, BSD rocks. The next thing that needs some work is Quicktime and Flash, what would be a desktop without those plugins? Any ideas are welcome on making these two things to work. BTW, you guys are doing a wonderful job in the mailing list.

GTKMozEmbed with linux-firefox
Hi everyone,
I use www/linux-firefox as my standard browser, as www/firefox doesn't support
flash.
/etc/make.conf has
WITH_MOZILLA=firefox
WITH_GECKO=firefox
I am trying to install devel/devhelp, and I bumped into these issues:
1) it requires ${LOCALBASE}/lib/${MOZILLA}/components/libwidget_gtk2.so (and
if not present, it tries to install www/${MOZILLA} ) . linux-firefox doesn't
include libwidget_gtk2.so , but nvu (which I have installed) does.
I solved this issue by symlinking nvu's libwidget_gtk2.so to the expected
firefox location.
so.. 2) when building devhelp, it sees libwidget_gtk2.so and it moves ahead...
until
[...]

Again, gtkmozembed is available from nvu, but not the .pc (no biggie I
suppose)...
anyway, the question is : is hter a way I can have the missing components (so
far, libwidget_gtk2 , gtkmozembed, mozembed, xpcom ) *without* having to
install the native firefox ?
Would this be possible to do with a new port? (i.e., www/firefox with a special
config to only build these objects... would it be useful ?

what version of the plugin are you using? does it work with video.google.com

You should set Print command in printer properties of

Thanks for the reply, Andrew - but isn't that the command to use when

lpr ${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+'-P'}${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME}
I changed this to kprinter --stdin and now I get the standard
kprinter-window where I can chose a printer.
Yes, it's a good way. I've used gtklp for this. Still investigation
is pending for this matter. You can file a PR if you like or poke
me in some time as I tend to forget such things.
Thanks!

the cmd shown is :
lpr ${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+'-P'}${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME}
which in itself isn't a problem (it prints to my default cups printer).
the problem is that I cannot see ALL my other printers that I have
defined in cups. I can understand that in some software that doesnt support
cups i would have to use lpr -P[printername], but freebsd based firefox DOES
detect my printers - linux-firefox doesn't show them.

linux-firefox : cups printers not found
hi all, I recently changed www/firefox for www/linux-firefox . I now realised that my CUPS printers are not available from File - Print., only 'Postcript/default' is available. Cupsd is available and managed fine on localhost:631. I can print via lpr -Pprintername, openoffice does show the cups printers in its dropdown. I am not sure how to proceed. Is there an option to enable cups support in linux-firefox? Am I supposed to rebuild linux-firefox from source (but ... how from freebsd? :-? ) The system is: $ uname -a FreeBSD ayiin..com 6.1-STABLE FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #2: Sat Jul 15 12:29:06 EST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/AYIIN i386 linux-firefox itself tells me this about it: Generated: Thu Jul 20 2006 10:44:43 GMT+1000 (EST) User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 FreeBSD/i386 Firefox/1.5.0.4 Build ID: 2006050817 $ pkg_info | grep -i cups cups-1.2.0 The Common UNIX Printing System: Metaport to install comple cups-base-1.2.0_2 The Common UNIX Printing System cups-pdf-2.4.1_1A virtual printer for CUPS to produce PDF files cups-pstoraster-8.15 Postscript interpreter for CUPS printing to non-PS printers cups-samba-5.0.r3 The Common UNIX Printing System: MS Windows client drivers libgnomecups-0.2.2_1,1 Support library for gnome cups admistration $ pkg_info | grep firefox firefox-remote-20040803 Wrapper scripts for firefox web browser linux-firefox-1.5.0.4 Web browser based on the browser portion of Mozilla $ pkg_info | grep linux linux-XFree86-libs-4.3.99.902_7 XFree86 libraries, Linux binary linux-atk-1.9.1 Accessibility Toolkit, Linux/i386 binary linux-expat-1.95.8 Linux/i386 binary port of Expat XML-parsing library linux-firefox-1.5.0.4 Web browser based on the browser portion of Mozilla linux-flashplugin-7.0r63 The official Macromedia Flash Player for Linux Mozilla and linux-fontconfig-2.2.3_5 Linux/i386 binary of Fontconfig linux-glib2-2.6.6 Version 2.X Linux/i386 binary port of GLib linux-gtk2-2.6.10 GTK+ library, version 2.X, Linux binary linux-hicolor-icon-theme-0.5 A high-color icon theme shell from the FreeDesktop project linux-jpeg-6b.34RPM of the JPEG lib linux-pango-1.8.1 Linux pango binary linux-png-1.2.8_2 RPM of the PNG lib linux-realplayer-10.0.7.785.20060201 Linux RealPlayer 10 from RealNetworks linux-tiff-3.7.1TIFF library, Linux/i386 binary linux-xorg-libs-6.8.2_5 Xorg libraries, linux binaries linux_base-fc-4_6 Base set of packages needed in Linux mode (for i386/amd64) linux_dri-6.5 Binary Linux DRI libraries for 3D hardware acceleration of linuxpluginwrapper-20051113_4 A wrapper allowing use of linux-plugins with native applica Thanks for any help!!

linux-firefox and multimedia
I have mplayerplug-in show most of my multimedia in the *native* firefox. However, linux-firefox runs very smooth too and runs flash7.

linux-firefox
I'm trying to get linux-firefox running on a box that also has native firefox installed. When I try to start it I get the Already Running error. I have tried renaming the .mozilla file and checked for a PID or lockfile in /var/run, found nothing. There is no firefox or mozilla process running. Does anybody have a suggestion?
