Hello Brian, Thanks for your comment. If I type the following command at the shell: xdg-open "http://www.bbc.co.uk";
Then I get a newly opened, maximised Firefox window, which opens a blank page (the Ubuntu start page, exactly as if within Firefox, I had pressed Ctrl+N.) However, if I run either of the following commands: firefox "http://www.bbc.co.uk"; firefox -new-tab "http://www.bbc.co.uk"; then the BBC page opens in a new tab as I would expect. I'm doing this in Ubuntu Mate, 64-bit, Wily, fully updated as of now, Firefox is already running. Are there any other tests it would help for me to do? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1464053 Title: ubuntu-bug is itself broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1464053/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
