Mozilla has a tendency to notice that another mozilla is already running, and to just make that program open a new window instead of starting its own, so you might be running a different mozilla version without noticing. All versions of the mozilla browser I have tested ( mozilla, mozilla-firefox, mozilla-firebird ), have MozillaFirebird-bin,firefox-bin as their WM_CLASS. > Since then I've been experimenting with mozilla-firefox (now that > it's arrived) and mozilla-thunderbird, and I've noticed they both > use the Gecko WM_CLASS. . . perhaps mozilla are migrating to Gecko > as their WM_CLASS? I don't think so. I have still not seen a mozilla version using Gecko as a WM_CLASS. This would be very weird by the way, since the WM_CLASS property is about the entire window, while Gecko is only the HTML renderer. > I must also add a thank you for helping make Debian the easiest and > most reliable distribution to use.

I have added MozillaFirebird-bin,firefox-bin to the standard klipper ignore list, it should appear in the next version of the debian packages. cheers domi
