when I kill all mozilla-firefox and mozilla instanzes and wipe out the
.mozilla and .firefox directories, mozilla-firefox fails to start with
following message:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: XDM authorization key matches an existing client!
(firefox-bin:12546): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
This makes no sense. With strace -f, I see multiple openings of the
.Xauthority file and only after a while it simply breaks.
When I run "host +" and start FF once, then it does work after that,
even with "host -".

Severity: grave
Hello,
when I kill all mozilla-firefox and mozilla instanzes and wipe out the
.mozilla and .firefox directories, mozilla-firefox fails to start with
following message:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: XDM authorization key matches an existing client!
(firefox- bin:12546) : Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
This makes no sense. With strace -f, I see multiple openings of the
.Xauthority file and only after a while it simply breaks.
When I run "host +" and start FF once, then it does work after that,
even with "host -".
Regards,
Eduard.
