Yes that matches my experience. When I went through the install again
and went the other way with the bios/uefi decision, everything seemed to

Tried to upgrade 14.04 to 16.04 from a USB onto an Intel NUC. Gave an

Tried again, instead of upgrading, reformatted / partition and
installed, same error.
This is the automatically generated error,
I tried logging in as a different user; this user had no ~/.mozilla to
remove, but trying to start firefox had the same behavior

Title:
Fresh
Thanks for checking in.
I already moved the old ~/.mozilla to ~/.mozilla_old, and none of my
attempts have yet created a new ~/.mozilla (except when I managed to
start up firefox as root, it probably created a /.mozilla, which I
should probably look for and delete).
I'll double-check tonight
Now the bug is 6 years old; I'm seeing this in a fresh upgrade to 10.4,
when I try to start firefox. See bug 933283 (look, this bug was in the

around for 2 orders of magnitude!)

Upgraded to 10.04 from, I think it was 8.04? (it was pretty old).
Everything seemed to go ok, except sound and firefox. I found some other
web advice to do with fixing up alsa, so sound works now. But still
firefox will not start.
Click the icon, error window Your Firefox

OK, i got firefox up, but this is not a solution:
sudo su
# firefox
works!
but
sudo firefox
does not!
It is (obviously) not acceptable to have to run ffox as root...
