Slackware 10 Mozilla 1.7 hangup.
bash-2.05b$ mozilla
*** Registering -webcal handler.
*** Registering text/calendar handler.
*** Registering webcal protocol handler.
And this is where it has sat for the last ten minutes.
Root can operate Mozilla but my regular user can't.
bash-2.05b$ ls -l /usr/bin/mozilla
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 4201 2004-06-18 16:18 /usr/bin/mozilla
As far as I can tell that is what the permissions for it should be (everyone can execute it).

Don't know what the problem might be but it's working fine on my fresh Slack 10 install.
BTW - I'm using KDE if that makes any difference...

Out of curiosity, the first time you ran mozilla, did you run it as root? And then when you tried it as your normal user it didn't work.
And for the person who said it worked, same question only exact opposite. Did you run mozilla as a normal user the very first time.
For some reason I think I may have read something about that...so why'd I do it!? lol

To add more detail...I just reinstalled Slackware 10:
When I immediatly added a normal user then logged in as that user, mozilla worked fine. Then I logged in as root and mozilla worked fine, however after going back to the normal user, mozilla no longer worked.
Incase I didn't word that right, as soon I used mozilla 1.7 as root, running it as a normal user no longer worked.

Weird, I guess a config file is not readable by mozilla somewhere...
