Many times. I've even rebooted several times. 

Incidentally, despite any settings I make in the login configuration off
the Main Menu, some FC5 machines offer Gnome as an entry when you click
the login "session" button, and some don't.

Reinout says on the epiphany list that that's the current one. He also
says "Galeon, as far as I know, doesn't use dbus to check if there are other 
instances of it running; Epiphany does."

It opened it all right, and that's useful; thanks! (I had expected some
longer command.) But it didn't put it into the main menu. I'd like to do
that, too, and add an icon to my browser drawer, even though mozilla is
the browser I use least. I created a launcher with that command and the
old Big Red Bespectacled Lizard icon, but I don't know where Fedora put it. :-(
