Just installed Arch, Gnome Desktop, Firefox NOT starting
Each time I try to start firefox by clicking on the icon, I see it loading but then it closes and doesn't start. If I try using the terminal to start it, it doesn't output any errors and it still doesn't start. When I try to log out I see firefox as a running process and it says it's not responding.

How did you install firefox? Also make sure your system is up-to-date.

I installed firefox with:
sudo pacman -S firefox
And my system is up to date.

Weird, firefox works fine for me on a fully updated system. Have you tried killing that unresponsive process that is running?

Killing the process doesn't work, it still won't start.

Please paste the output of `hostnamectl`.
