I must admit that I don't know at what stage mozilla has stopped as I was doing a number of things with this one machine yesterday. However now when I click on the mozilla startup icon at the bottom of the screen it appears to begin to start but then just ends without any messages displayed. Is there a way to determine why mozilla is not starting, then I might have a hope about fixing it.

I had something similar happen because of an incorrect link
in the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory.   Incorrect link was
to the java/sdk.   Similar phenomenon -- Mozilla would appear to
start then disappear.   The correct links are in some of the Mozilla
release notes.

I looked in that directory and all that is there is mozplugger.so. Renaming it or rmoving it made no difference.

If I go to a command line and type "mozilla" (sans quotes) I get the command prompt back right away with no error messages. "which mozilla" reports "/usr/bin/mozilla" and if I try "mozilla -mail" I get "Segmentation fault".

Could it be that normal running is hitting this segmentation fault, absorbing the error and ending. How can I re-install mozilla? I have tried using the package manager gui to uninstall it so that I could re-install it but it tells me that I need a bunch of dependencies or something to uninstall (don't quite understand that).

The machine is at the current FC1 level by using up2date.
