firefox

Hi,

I have some problems with my firefox. My firefox is very very slow and when I am opening it it just shows me a blanc site called "Bon Echo" and I can't use it.
I have tried to reemerge mozilla-firefox and emerge mozilla-firefox-bin but it does not solve my problem. Is anyone familiar with this problem?

Try setting the mozbranding USE flag and reemerging firefox, that should at least give you the browser name you are expecting. Aside from the name of the browser, what exactly is not working as expected?

I can't do anything in firefox - not even surfing

hi

post

emerge -pv mozilla-firefox, please

First do you have a Internet Connection? (ping, traceroute, ..)

Second, does any other browser work, maybe you have to set up a proxy?

I am connected to the net and I do not have a proxy- I can use opera without any problems. But not firefox and I have emerged with USE mozbranding and it is still not working.

You can try to remove the user settings of firefox, deleting /home/your_name/.mozilla
Firefox will generate the new files on the next start

Since no one else mentioned it, the Bon Echo part is what I would presume would have been the testing name of firefox 2.0. No idea if that is actually it, but the Bon Echo part isn't anything. Its not a website ( as far I know. )

Bon Echo is the name of the browser if you don't have mozbranding enabled.

Nothing wrong with it. I'm using Bon Echo right now, and it's great. As for your problem, sorry, I can't help much, but I thought I'd clear that up.

I too am having problem emerging mozilla-firefox.

Some info:

stobbsm · Guru Joined: 23 May 2004 Posts: 452

I emerged mine with filepicker enabled in the use flags. Worth a try at least, right?

filepicker didn't work for me. Same error...

I'm sorry, I got nothing.

Mine worked perfectly on the first try when I emerged it. Did you check bugs.gentoo.org?
