Re: KDE and Mozilla 1.2
I know this is a bit late but I just found out about this feature of Mozilla in the recent Linux Magazine article. Apparently Moz on *nix's can connect to currently running Mozilla processes. From the Moz web site: quote When Netscape Navigator is invoked with the -remote argument, it does not open a window, but instead connects to and controls an already-existing process. The argument to the -remote switch is an Xt action to invoke, with optional arguments. Remote control is implemented using X properties, so the two processes need not be running on the same machine, and need not share a file system. ... Example usage: mozilla -remote openurl(http://www.mozilla.org) /quote (quote from http://www.mozilla.org/unix/remote.html) Particularly interesting are openURL (URL, new-window) and openURL (URL, new-tab). This may not solve your problem, but may provide a decent work around. I added a new item with K Menu Editor and used the command /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla -remote openurl(http://business.tamu.edu, new-window) instead of /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla. This will open a new window if Moz is already running. Unfortunately, if Moz isn't running, you get a No running window found. error (from the command line) If you wanted to get fancy, you could write a shell script that check if Moz was running or not and make the correct call... -- Matt Tesauro Systems Analyst and Web Applications Developer Office of the Dean Mays Business School, Texas AM University 979.862.3949 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- No sense in being pessimistic, It wouldn't work anyway...

Re: KDE and Mozilla 1.2
This is the standard Mozilla behavior. It has always acted this way. Just push Ctrl+N for a new window. Only Konq will lauch into a new process if you click its icon with another instance already in the memory. Whether this is desirable or not is another question. --- Anders E.

I have Mozilla-1.0.0 here and everything works fine (no such message as you describe it). Maybe the --remote option (see mozilla --help, actually, that should be the first place to look!) can help and even worked with Netscaped 4.7x. I wrote myself a script to enable 'normal' behaviour with that option. And simply opening another window is surely more sane than a stupid error message. BTW: wasn't the topic here debian-kde?
