firefox problem



Hi,

I saved my home directory under FC3 to a DVD. Then I installed FC5 and moved my .mozilla file on the DVD to my new home directory. When I try to start firefox I get an error msg telling me that firefox "is already running, but is not responding". There is no file in .mozilla to that match *lock*. If I remove .mozilla firefox starts but then I lose my valueable bookmarks and passwords.

Does anyone else have this problem?

I came to think of the problem with the DVD renaming files (so .mozilla is actually _mozilla on the DVD and I had to rename it when copying it back). Do anyone have a list of filenames from .mozilla/firefox in FC3 to send me, so I can see how to rename them back if this should be the problem?

Thanks
David
