It would appear that with that plugin-container killed, I can no longer start new Firefox windows through the Alt-F2 function. You probably still have a leftover firefox process. Make sure all of them are gone.

Otherwise it will complain that firefox is already runing or not do anything at all
That is a known behaviour. Just kill'em all ;-)
I often have Firefox open and using the Alt-F2 function still works. For example, if I want to google search on something, I'd press Alt-F2 and then, in the box, type gg:<subject>. This is a very handy function. In 11.0, that would open Konqueror, but now it's Firefox. As I mentioned, killing plugin-container means I can no longer use that, if Firefox is running.
You just need to kill / end firefox properly - and all of it. On my machine it doesn't matter at all if I kill plugin-container. Searching with gg: <blah> still works - as long as firefox itself is still "mentally healthy". Sometimes it misbehaves after system updates were applied. A restart of firefox fixes that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
