A colleague running FC8 seems to have intermittent problems starting
firefox, particularly from the Gnome menu bar, but also probs starting
openoffice. I did an `strace -f` and compared to my nicely working
firefox (FC7) and the main diff seems to be they have numerous 'EAGAIN
(Resource temporarily unavailable)' msgs in their code (see below) but
I'm unsure how to determine what they are referring to so all help
welcome! Ta, M
