firefox won't start (again)
 

i don't what is wrong with my system but now and again firefox will refuse to open. I can't give you guys and terminal output because the terminal will just there and do nothing when i do "firefox" in the terminal. what is wrong here??


I tried removing firefox, but pacman complained that the database is locked (but it isn't!! there is not /tmp/pacman.lck file) grrrr i wish my system would just work.

Can you give more details. Maybe a starce? What libraries have you got
installed (Flash?)
Have you updated your system (-Sy -Qu ...)

Is FireFox still running or does it return to command prompt?

I am sure if you give more details someone can help.
