Re: load Order of Firefox/Thunderbird

Try this,
Open "Main Menu[System]->Preferences->Sessions"
And there remove firefox and thunderbird from the startup programs.

Also watch for the Order values.

hey Folks,

Running FC6 and GNOME.

I've tried scratching my head on how to start searching for answers to
my problem but I think I lack the proper terms and vocab.

This is the problem.

1. I boot my computer (fine)
2. I login with ID and PW
3. Desktop starts to load, but before I see the gnome "loading splash
screen" what ever this is called. I get firefox that checks for updates
and then opens. I have to then close it manualy. Then Thunderbird starts
up and I have to exit that manualy.
4. then the splash come sup with all the little icons that apear as
various things load...
5. then I have my desktop.
6. Then I reopen thunderbird (to check e-mail)
7. then I open firefox to surf.
8. continue on with general procrastination.

How can I fix the problem of the pre-load issue of firefox and thunderbird.

I usualy do RPM's but no RPS'm avail for 2.x of either so I went with
tar binaries.

I search for boot order and GDM and GNOM and GNOME desktop and display
maner etc etc etc... but nothing documenting this behaviour... i tried
searching bugs at the mozilla bug pages for both issues and still
nothing.....

any ideas?

Cheers
