Hi all, This is my first post on this list so a bit of information
I am brand new to Linux and have recently installed Ubuntu 6.06 I have had a lot of help from another Ubuntu user but I have a problem that has him (and me) baffled. Firefox is installed on my PC but when I click the icon to open it the cycling circular cursor shows up for about 10 - 15 seconds and then goes away with nothing happening. If I double-click and html file the same thing. I tried issuing the command firefox from terminal but nothing happened. A look in /var/log/messages shows no messages about firefox I removed Firefox and re-installed it from the web and it installed fine and shows an icon in the top panel but still i get the same problem. Can anyone assist please? Words of one syllable or less would be appreciated wit every step defined as I have no prrevious Linux experience.
