Jump to a CLI and run firefox ... show us the output to the CLI: mtobler(a)ren:~> firefox If you want to get down to brass tacks, do this: mtobler(a)ren:~> nohup strace firefox When the prompt returns, you'll have a file called "nohup.out", which will contain the results of 'strace', which will be much more detailed about what's going on (than simply running firefox and waiting for error output, which could be ambiguous).

I'm running 3.6.6 on a 32 bit machine running 11.1. For some reason I don't find 3.6.6 on the 64 bit repositories. I want it for my 64 bit machine. -- --- Paul J. Gans
