Hi,
I updated (via yum) to the current rawhide firefox and fired it up after the install was complete.
For some reason, all of the menus (file, edit etc) have gone as have just about all of the icons (such as back, forward etc).
Can anyone suggest the reason for this behaviour?
Using rawhide, x86_64, gnome desktop.

Are you sure it was not actually already running when you did the update? In that case, what you thought was firing it up may have just been opening a new window of the old version, which would be confused.

Yes. I'd been using Opera 9 since Thursday to test some sites out with.

It would - except this has lost all top menu, most of the icons a lots more besides.

Make sure it wasn't still spinning in the background or something -- run "killall firefox-bin; sleep 5; killall -9 firefox-bin" and then try running it again. Or of course if you've rebooted since using it last, you're pretty safe. :)

Yeah -- can't find its chrome.

Too many X updates without restarting the X server. Restarted X and hey presto, all is well in the world :-)

You have for some reason broken profile. Try to (re)move (backup first) the firefox profile (~/.mozilla/firefox) and try again. Or try to start firefox in safemode - if any extension is not compatibile for some reason then safemode should work.
