The first time I installed Firefox, I had a problem with clicking on
browser links in email and Usenet because it would pop up a profile
manager box ("Choose User Profile"), and would not let me use the same
profile that was already in use.Then I installed 1.0 and through some option, I assumed --enable-single-profile, it would correctly pop up a new instance of Firefox without bothering me about profiles. Now I've installed 1.04, again using --enable-single-profile, and it's back to the old behavior. I followed the instructions in blfs 20050623 exactly... is it the profile-sharing and/or profile-locking option? The Firefox chapter says that the configuration options are similar to those used in Mozilla; the Mozilla chapter refers you to the ./configure --help command for details about what each compile switch does. Running ./configure --help tells me that --disable-profile-sharing will disable profile sharing, and --disable-profile-locking will disable profile locking. Can anyone point me at a clue or a FAQ that will explain in more detail what the compile options do and what combination will let me go back to launching multiple instances of Firefox? -- Peter B.
