Hi,
I compiled Firefox 1.5 from ports but when attempting to start it I get
the error message:
Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new
window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart
your system.
I could not find any Firefox or Mozilla type of process running.
I am starting it from a terminal and I get no error messages there.
Ending Xorg and then starting it again does not help.
Finally Firefox was compiled with -o -pipe -mtune=pentium4, so I doubt
if there would be any problem with the build.
Thank you.

ps. Mozilla runs OK, but I had to turn off java and javascript, and
also block pop-up windows in order to stop the occasional 100% cpu
usage and zombie processes.
There is probably a file named lock somewhere under the .mozilla
directory in you home directory. Usually these are left behind when
firefox has exited uncleanly. Remove the lock file and all should
be back to normal...

find ~/.mozilla -iname lock
