It does NOT work that way for me. That's why.
I've tested on two different computers, one opensuse leap 42.2 the Other Manjaro.
Launching firefox and opening a file ALWAYS opens the file from the ssh server. It never opens the file from the ssh client.
I don't have two opensuse machines to test with to see if this is just some basdardized opensuse feature. Nobody else compiles it that way.
Would you like me to send you a movie Carlos?
to run the firefox instance on a remote opensuse machine: ssh to remove box firefox -no-remote opening /etc/hostname returns hostname of remote box
this also works:
add
MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 export MOZ_NO_REMOTE
to your profile.
Maybe John has that sort of stuff in his profile, that would explain why his setup reacts differently. I can only confirm the behaviour Carlos has described, even across widely varying openSUSE's. To get a remote firefox, I had to use '-no-remote' which gives me a much slower firefox, the host machine is also indicated in the windows title "Mozilla Firefox <@office34>".
It's not just opensuse. It behaves that way on Ubuntu and Scientific Linux as well. It also applies to different users on the same machine unless you isolate them with -no-remote. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
