[gentoo-user] MozFierbird bookmarks
I've ben trying to get flash working in MozillaFirebird. I think I've figured out how to do it but along the way I've created a major problem. From a site that needs flash, I d'loaded the flash plugin and attempted to install it. This failed due to the wrong install directory. Next I emerged the netscape flash plugin. All seemed to go right.BUT Now my MozillaFirebird bookmarks are gone! I looked around and couldn't find out what might have happened so I decided to reboot the box. Durring boot, the box hug after a error on cupsd something about couldn't start child error #99 the next lines were starting USB and PCI hotplugging There it sat for perhaps 5 minutes. I reset the box and the same thing happened. I reset it again with the USB printer and the card reader plugged in and cupsd and hot plugging succeeded and boot was successful. Still no bookmarks, though. Am I screwed or is there a way to recover them? Does anyone have any idea about what may have happened? -- Regards, Ernie 100% Microsoft and Intel free -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I periodically lose my bookmarks in Mozilla 1.4. I don't know what causes it but I restored from backup. You do do backups, don't you? Now I regularly copy ~/.mozilla/default/bookmarks.html to ~/.mozilla/bookmarks.html and ~/bookmarks.html so I have ready-to-use backups.

Ahh well I have this spare 20 gig drive that will go into the other box tomorrow and back ups will finally be done routinely.
