How do I remove the offending plugin?  I've tried to remove and
reinstall Firefox 1.0.3, but the same behavior occurs.  The root user
can open and use firefox, but my normal account cannot.

My Firefox will no longer work as a normal user (no page loads and

Looks like your adobe plugin is a linux port.  You need 
emulators/linux_base-8.  But you shouldn't unless you have a linux 
binary.  I didn't see a adobe plugin in the ports system so I am 
guessing this is where you went wrong.  Did you tell firefox to install 
a linux or unix plugin for pdfs or acrobat reader?  Remove the adobe 
plugin and see if firefox works right.  Also did you install the native 
firefox from ports?

My Firefox will no longer work as a normal user (no page loads and
buttons are unresponsive), although it does as root.  Starting from the
command line produces the following output (both as root and my normal
user account):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]> firefox
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/compat/linux/usr/

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Did you try running it from the command line? That way you can see if it prints 
errors
when it fails.

firefox doesn't show up

2005-03-31 Thread T.F. Cheng
hi, 
   My firefox stop to show up after I started it these
days, from "ps" and "top" I can see the process is
running (firefox-bin), but it won't show up in the
x-windows. Is there any reason that it did something
like this? 

thanks!!

Tsu-Fan Cheng
