Hi, I encountered same problem, Firefox doesn't want start. It took some (not short) time but I've installed new Firefox-1.5.0.1 successfully, without errors after all. Unfortunately, I cannot start it now. It simply ends earlier then it starts= . Nothing happens: #/usr/X11R6/bin #./firefox # I've started it as root and also tried another user but result is the same = :( Could someone help??? Thanks in advance.
