Exactly, and who could miss such an upgrade message?! http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/www/firefox/pkg-message?rev=1.13&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After installing Firefox, you must su - to root, and run ``firefox'' before running it as any other user. If you do not su - to root, you may lose some of your user settings. If you try to run Firefox as a normal user without first running it as root, the browser will not show up. This is a known issue with Firefox, and they hope to address it in a future release. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What else is the GNOME team supposed to do? Do you want them to call you at home, send you a personal fax, drop by your house? Come on man, READ before you go asking questions, and ESPECIALLY before attacking those who work the hardest to help you out. -- Adam "satyam, shivam, sundaram"
