Check /usr/bin/mozilla. If you want it to start mozilla, then it should be a symbolic link that points to the /opt/mozilla/bin/mozilla.sh script. If not, fix it: $ cd /usr/bin $ rm mozilla $ ln -s /opt/mozilla/bin/mozilla.sh mozilla $ ls -l /usr/bin/mozilla lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Jul 9 22:31 /usr/bin/mozilla -> /opt/mozilla/bin/mozilla.sh Maybe you should create another symbolic link for starting firefox, like this: $ cd /usr/bin $ ln -s /opt/firebox/firefox firefox (This assumes that you installed firefox under /opt/firefox) $ ls -l /usr/bin/firefox lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Aug 30 00:57 /usr/bin/firefox -> /opt/firefox/firefox -Ti

i checked, and there is a symbolic link to /opt/mozilla/bin/mozilla.sh, but this gives me firefox instead of mozilla...
$ cd /usr/bin $ rm mozilla $ ln -s /opt/mozilla/bin/mozilla.sh mozilla
$ ls -l /usr/bin/mozilla lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Jul 9 22:31 /usr/bin/mozilla -> /opt/mozilla/bin/mozilla.sh
Maybe you should create another symbolic link for starting firefox, like this:
$ cd /usr/bin $ ln -s /opt/firebox/firefox firefox
(This assumes that you installed firefox under /opt/firefox)
$ ls -l /usr/bin/firefox lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Aug 30 00:57 /usr/bin/firefox -> /opt/firefox/firefox

Then you probably installed firefox on top of where mozilla was. -Ti
