Hi, I've gotten past the build problem and I now have firefox 1.5 installed. I am up against another minor problem: It keeps asking me to import my setting from another (previous) version, and it says it did so successfully, but when the bookmarks don't show up and it asks me the same question again when I fire it up. I remembered reading about this situation and I fired up firefox as root; this works but when I go back to my regular account it keeps asking the questions....actually, to be more precise, if I run it with sudo, it has the bookmarks I want, but if I ssh -X -Y root@localhost and run it, it doesn't have them (which makes sense since that's a different $HOME.) Any suggestions? rm -rf .mozilla? Thanks again for the help, Mike
