[....] I'm getting confused as between machines, which is which; but Firefox has come up with another little nasty trick on at least two of them : when it does launch, it does so in offline mode -- and then complains because it can't refresh various sites. Surely there has to be a setting somewhere for whether to launch in online or offline mode? I haven't seen it, much less changed it on purpose ... -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Fedora 8 & 9; Alpine 1.10, Pan 0.132; Privoxy 3.0.6; Dillo 0.8.6, Galeon 2, Epiphany 2, Opera 9, Firefox 2 & 3 Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
