Hi,

Damm ... problems, problems ... ;-(

I've installed 5.3rc2 and I try to run X with a matrox g550, it works ... somehow now.

I'm running xfce4 with xorg 6.7.0. When I try to launch firefox or mozilla. I get the following error
error: no running window found

To be able to run the apps, I need to:
1) xhost +local
2) su
3) type mozilla or firefox

Mozilla or firefox need to be run as root or don't run at all. What's the problem?

I tried firefox from pkg collection and build my own from ports, both had the same problem.

thx for helping
