Mozilla 1.7.11 no longer opens
 
This is Open SUSE 10.0. I installed the Adobe flash-plugin on Firefox. That works fine. Mozilla 1.7.1 which I use most will only open as root or if I switch to another non-root account. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Mozilla with no success. I attempted to open it using the terminal, first as Mozilla, then /usr/bin/mozilla and the using the command /opt/mozilla/bin/mozilla.sh with the following result:

(mozilla-bin:9241): GConf-WARNING **: Owner of /tmp/gconfd-john is not the current user


** (mozilla-bin:9241): WARNING **: Owner of /tmp/orbit-john is not the current user

LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library libXt.so [libXt.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory]

/usr/bin/mozilla: line 259: 9241 Segmentation fault $MOZ_PROGRAM $MOZ_LANG


Any help will be appreciated.

You did install all the dependencies, right? Check for xorg-x11-libxt (that's the package that should contain those files in the error)
Anyway, if it works as root, another thing I would check is if the permissions are set up ok for the user.

try seamonkey, just unzip the tarball, run install to a specified folder. IT is exactly like netscape.

Thanks for reply. This program was installed by me, with no problems incurred in its use, at least a year ago with no changes since. At this time I decided to take the advice of TigerLinux and install Seamonkey and delete Mozilla. That works fine and I get the most program.

Again, thanks!

Seamonkey is great, exactly like Netscape,integrated with email.
