I'm finding a couple of bugs with my 10.3 version of Firefox (2.0.6). 1) Every time I try to do a download of files, Firefox crashes. I have installed bug-buddy which now records the crash. Are you using KDE or Gnome?
Gnome on 10.3
2) When I select View
Text Size > Increase, it does not appear to save my increased text size settings the next time I restart Firefox. And it shouldn't. To make it permanent, go in Edit/Preferences/Content and there select fonts and font sizes.
Hmm you might be right. Since this is one of those one-time settings, I may have previously done it there and forgotten about it. However, trying your method, I'm discovering the same crash problem I mentioned below about downloads.
As soon as I click Preferences, Firefox hangs/crashes on me again, just like when I attempt to download files. So, I guess I can't try your method right now. Although, I'm fairly certain I went into Preferences at least once since I installed 10.3 3 days ago.
Sounds to me like the folder or file storing the prefs is bad. Try renaming the prefs.js file in your profile folder: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Or create a new profile and see what happens. -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:jdarnold@buddydog.org) Linux Brain Dump - Linux Notes, HOWTOs and Tutorials: http://www.linuxbraindump.org Daemon Dancing in the Dark, an Open OS weblog: http://freebsd.amazingdev.com/blog/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

That didn't work. Renaming the prefs.js file and then Firefox created a new prefs.js file. I'm about to post the results of the terminal launch per Sunny's request. In my next email. Thanks, Bryen
