It is weird because I everything works if I su - to root and run Mozilla
or Firebird.  I remember this happened to me a few times in the past,
though I did not write down the fix : (

This time I will.

I don't see anything strange from the strace output.  The
/usr/bin/mozilla script exec's
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.5/mozilla-xremote-client


execve("/usr/lib/mozilla-1.5/mozilla-xremote-client",
["/usr/lib/mozilla-1.5/mozilla-xre"..., "xfeDoCommand(openBrowser)"],
[/* 43 vars */]) = 0
uname({sys="Linux", node="jim-linux.darden.com", ...}) = 0
brk(0)                                  = 0x88a6000
open("/etc/ld.so.preload", O_RDONLY)    = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/usr/lib/mozilla-1.5/tls/i686/mmx/libplds4.so", O_RDONLY) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/usr/lib/mozilla-1.5/tls/i686/mmx", 0xbff06a3c) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
open("/usr/lib/mozilla-1.5/tls/i686/libplds4.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)


This is followed by a few thousand line and then at the end this:


readv(3, [{"200 executed command: xfeDoComma"..., 47}, {"\0", 1}], 2) =
48
write(3, "\24\1\6\0=\0@\2\201\1\0\0\37\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0@\0\0", 24) = 24
read(3, "\34\0\353\2=\0@\2\201\1\0\0Eun\0\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\250\335"...,
32) = 32
read(3, "\1\10\353\2\5\0\0\0\37\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\21\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"...,
32) = 32
readv(3, [{"pid6960 at jim-linux", 17}, {"and", 3}], 2) = 20
write(3, "<\1\2\0\0\0\340\2+\1\1\0", 12) = 12
read(3, "\1\2\355\2\0\0\0\0\21\0\0\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\2\0\0\0x\300"...,
32) = 32
shutdown(3, 2 /* send and receive */)   = 0
close(3)                                = 0
exit_group(0)                           = ?
