No idea why, since nothing else has changed in the system in the interim. Downgrade to minor and leave open in case someone else sees this behaviour. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Again, a reinstall of firefox fixed it. It looks like it's something odd in the way firefox couples to the desktop. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
