I'd like to start Firefox on a remote machine (FC5) and have it

without problems.)

Try:

MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 firefox

Presuming there's no firefox running for that user on the remote machine.

Thanks, this is it!

The only problem is that it works only if there's no firefox running
_locally_ for the user with the same username as the remote one's. But

MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 firefox -P default

solves that problem, too.
