Then it worked. But this doesn't work on the other machine.
did you try 'kdesu firefox' or 'sudo firefox' or 'sux firefox' or logging into an X session as root?
1. I never run X sessions as root. 2. I use sux at a Konsole prompt to become root with the ability to run X programs, to install systemwide any applications that have GUI installers such as OOo, Mozilla, and Fx. 3. Then I run those programs as user. Thanks for input. -- _____________________ Christopher R. Carlen crobc@sbcglobal.net SuSE 9.1 Linux 2.6.5
