That sucks. I suspect it was just misplaced. I struggled with a similar problem for an hour or so, until I found out that mozilla-phoenix/firebird/firefox/any-other-fiery-mythical-beast changed its prefs directory between name changes. IRC at some point I had ~/.phoenix ~/.mozilla-firebird and now ~/.firefox. Perhaps a 'find -name "bookmarks.html"' will turn up the misplaced bookmarks file. Maybe the developers should just settle on a relatively name like Mozilla G2 or Mozilla XP (or can alphanumeric combinations now be trademarked?). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
