EDIT: Window not showing issue, I found if I right click and maximise the window via the Fluxbox toolbar, I can get the firefox window to appear.
Somehow, fluxbox was 'remembering' the window possition somewhere off in la-la land.

EDIT: No windows decorations seems to have suddenly disappeared, after MONTHS of starting firefox, letting it startup then restarting fluxbox to fix the windows decorations.
I guess firefox saw I was asking the question and decided to make a fool of me.

EDIT: Final issue, lets see if this still happens...

Firefox core dumps , if I have multiple tabs which have videos. I typically get about 6 core dumps per day.
I use the nvidia drivers but I don't use hardware rendering.

So, if anyone can assist, I would be grateful.

In the meantime, I have initiated a complete --emptytree re-build of @world and @system. (something I do periodically)
