I had a mouse problem where my mouse clicked when I moved it (battery went dead) and it opened a dozen or so Mozilla windows and different dialogs. After replacing the battery I can not get Mozilla to run, I click on it, it says "Starting Mozilla" and I get the hour glass mouse icon, after a short while, it just goes back to the regular mouse icon and Mozilla never starts.
I saw there was a new version and downloaded it, installed it and nothing, so I tried removing Mozilla so I could install fresh and got an error.
# rpm -evv mozilla-1.4.1-18 ... error: Failed dependencies: libxpcom.so is needed by (installed) openoffice.org-libs-1.1.0-6
at which point the uninstall failed. I found openoffice.org-libs on the CD and installed it, I had to use --force since it said it was already there, and uninstalled Mozilla and re-installed. Same problem, I must be missing something but not sure what or how to find out. The above error may or may not be my problem but I assume I have to fix it at least before I continue. I dont want to have to re-install Fedora from scratch again, I already have twice and had the machine doing what I want/need and stable until my mouse problem.

Dear Mike,
I still have problems with my Cordless USB mouse too, while under Winders pushing the button on the receiver and resetting the mouse itself with a small red button (on logitech) will always do the trick on Microsoft, it is not a Mozilla problem.
With Fedora I just reboot one or two times and that does it, it seems that the usb/mouse driver is essentially oke, but that there is something with the hardware timing still, I still have 3 weeks before I go en route with my 4 pipes CB750K american model with miles speedo, but without cruisecontrol ;-) , so I might have the time to look again at the problem and come up with a bugzilla report.
Yours,
