I tried logging in as a different user; this user had no ~/.mozilla to
remove, but trying to start firefox had the same behavior

Title:
Fresh
If you were running Firefox with sudo, you'll run into issues. Please run:
chown -R MYUSER:MYUSER ~/.mozilla
where MYUSER is your system user name. Then try running Firefox normally
(firefox).

Thanks for checking in.
I already moved the old ~/.mozilla to ~/.mozilla_old, and none of my
attempts have yet created a new ~/.mozilla (except when I managed to
start up firefox as root, it probably created a /.mozilla, which I
should probably look for and delete).
I'll double-check tonight
** Description changed:
Upgraded to 10.04 from, I think it was 8.04? (it was pretty old).
Everything seemed to go ok, except sound and firefox. I found some other
web advice to do with fixing up alsa, so sound works now. But still
firefox will not start.
Click the icon, error window
OK, i got firefox up, but this is not a solution:
sudo su
# firefox
works!
but
sudo firefox
does not!
It is (obviously) not acceptable to have to run ffox as root...
