Hi, the other day I wanted to test firefox 1.5, so i merged "mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.1"...

But since firefox 1.5 was not my cup of tea, I wanted to change back to "mozilla-firefox-1.0.7-r4".
(And another funny thing was that I couldn't drag and drop e-mails in sylpheed anymore)

So i merged "mozilla-firefox-1.0.7-r4", but it looks very funny, its like it doesn't have any gui.. or how to describe...

I cheked emerge.log and figured out that I also had upgraded glib, pango and gtk+. I restored my old version af gtk+, wich fixed the drag and drop problem in sylpheed, but did not solve my problem with firefox. After I had restored both pango och glib to it still looked the same, and it still does.. Any ideas?

Maybe it's a theme problem ... Try to set firefox to the default theme.

That isnot the easiest thing to do. In the themes-windows I cant se anything...

But when i started firefox from a terminal I got this:

Code:

dazli@Sandra / $ firefox
No running windows found
Extension System Warning: Failed to set up default extensions files probably because you do not have write privileges to this location. While you can run Firefox like this, it is recommended that you run it at least once with privileges that allow it to generate these initial files to improve start performance. Running from a disk image on MacOS X is not recommended.*** loading the extensions datasource

And I checked the permissions of "/hom/dazli" and its subfolders.. But they are correct...

Edit:

Ran firefox as root a couple of times... There it looks fine...
And now when I start firefox as user I get this instead:
Code:

dazli@Sandra / $ firefox
