Problem with firefox

I was recently fiddling with gtk and qt settings and engines, reinstalling and uninstalling them and what not.. (i know vague.. i dont know what i did this is what i literally was doing) and now fire fox wont run. When I try to run it, a small tiny window with the help logo (the circle thing) and arrow over it is in it. When I load firefox via terminal here is the output:

GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times
Registering '@mozilla.org/module-loader/python;1' (libpyloader.so)    
Registering '@mozilla.org/network/protocol/about;1?what=python' (pyabout.py)

Re: Problem with firefox

I'm not sure if this would help out, but have you read this for the gtk errors?

Re: Problem with firefox

why have you set gtk-font-name to ""?
and is there actually a file at /home/zack/.themes//gtk-2.0/gtkrc? usually a theme name goes between the two slashes. Try renaming gtkrc-2.0 and see what happens (also try the above suggestion of course)

Re: Problem with firefox

Hmmm.. Were getting closer to fixing this i think.. There is no .themes folder in my home dir!

Edit: Ok, when i removed gtkrc and gtkrc-2.0 that fixed my problem. the gtkrc-2.0 file was supposed to have ALOT more code in it. Theres just one final issue now. When I close a firefox window, the process stays open and consumes a constant 50% cpu. How can i fix that now?

Try to disable all addons/plugins and see if that helps.  If so, enable one at a time to figure out which one is the culprit.

Re: Problem with firefox

Hi, Zack!

I don't know if this is gonna work for you, but I had a similar problem today and solved it by renaming (and then removing) the file: /home/user/.kde4/share/config/gtkrc-2.0. In my case, Firefox was opening, but without any text. Maybe you should try renaming first. Once it solved the problem, I deleted the file.
