The *problem machine* is using SeaMonkey 2.46 {from the SeaMonkey site}
over Debian Jessie with the MATE desktop. Everything had been normal
since the install several weeks ago.

This morning, on only 1 of 4 profiles, I have a problem with the Browser
window.

In a *functional* profile there are 3 "menu bars"[correct term???]
A bar with "File Edit View ..." entries
A bar with "Back Forward Reload ..." entries with space for a URL
A bar with "Top Up First Previous ..." entries

The *NON-functional* profile is missing the bar with "File Edit View
..." entries.
The lack of access to Bookmarks is *CRITICAL*.

I suspect the underlying cause was associated with a non-functioning
swap partition. That problem has been remedied.


Why should "virtual memory" have any effect on your settings of an
application?


'Cause I have no idea of how Linux fails if a needed swap partition is 
non-functional. Otherwise known as "grasping at straws".




I doubt that is your problem, more like you have the menu
taskbar hidden.

ALT+V > Show/Hide > Menu Bar enable


Got in one. Should have caught that one myself. Thank you.

I made a backup image of the partition this morning. I only I had 
done so earlier ;<


Suggestions/comments?
