Binary package hint: firefox
I could not start Firefox iconified by command "kstart --iconify firefox &". Same with firefox-3.0.
I am using (X)ubuntu 7.10.
See also Bug #20767 |
Binary package hint: firefox
A Firefox session is opened automatically when you start Firefox, if you have chosen "show windows and tabs from last time" in Startup preferences. Furthermore, if you do not close Firefox 3 explicitly before logging out, the saved session will be opened automatically after logging in next time. A Firefox session can contain a lot of windows that are opened on top of each other in the desktop and you can not use your computer while windows keep popping up.
I would like to get Firefox opened minimized so that I can use my computer while Firefox is starting up. It would be nice, if would be able to choose to work by a Firefox window while some other Firefox windows are "opening" in background.
I can not start Firefox minimized by command "kstart --iconify firefox &". Even if I could, I am not sure, if this would open the session minimized, when Firefox starts automatically after logging in.
I can start e.g. OpenOffice.org iconified (to the Task List) by respective kstart command, see Bug #20767 for details.
Actually, I would like to have all applications started minimized or in system tray, when a saved desktop session is returned after logging in to desktop environment.
I am using Xubuntu 8.04 & Firefox 3. |

Firefox is rude and steals wm focus |

I would like to get Firefox opened in background so that I can use my computer while Firefox is starting up. I can do so in Mandriva 2008 spring / Gnome / Firefox 2; (I didn't test in Ubuntu Gnome): I could continue working in terminal while Firefox is starting; Firefox does not steal focus or pop up, if you click or type in e.g. a terminal window after you have started Firefox startup. I would expect similar behavior in Xfce / Xubuntu / Firefox (and other applications).
I can not start Firefox minimized by command "kstart --iconify firefox &", either. Even if I could, I am not sure, if this would open the session minimized, when Firefox starts automatically after logging in.
