Fedcora 2 X86_64 mozilla problem

[Cyrus Adkisson]

Well I'm not getting the getcwd error anymore. Now when I run firefox it 
just returns without doing anything: 

[cyrus at teddy cyrus]$ firefox
[cyrus at teddy cyrus]$ firefox
[cyrus at teddy cyrus]$ ps -A | grep firefox
[cyrus at teddy cyrus]$

Nothing happens. No windows, no error messages...
