Anyway, anyone know of a trick to get Firefox to work in multiple windowing environments at once? Specifically, I have a machine that runs a local Xorg desktop as well as one or more Xvnc instances. I don't know how to have a single instance of Firefox open windows in more than one windowing environment. I'm not sure if it is even possible. A single Firefox may not have the ability to talk to more than one at a time. I could just run more than one Firefox instance, but Firefox does not let a single user run more than one instance on the same machine. Getting around that problem is another solution. Thanks for any ideas. (And no, running the VNC desktop within the Xorg environment is not sufficient.) -- Crist J. Clark | cjclark@alum.mit.edu
