Hi, I start it from xterm: # pwd # /usr/X11R6/bin # firefox # I'm getting no error message at all. I just type "firefox", then after 1 or 2 seconds it returns to the prompt and that's it... I'm logged in as root. But I also tried it as other user and it doesn't wor= k as well. Vlado 2006/2/21, Donald J.
