Well, you _have_ to use a window manager, because AFAIK no X application knows how to resize itself. I'm not sure how you are getting horizontal resizing...maybe some internal firefox control (like the bookmarks side-panel resizer control) is showing up and allowing you to resize the main frame, which is causing firefox to resize. If you don't want a full desktop environment, try twm, fvwm, fluxbox, or something similarly lightweight. You could also start firefox with "firefox -width X -height Y". > This is a bad link, > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -l .mozilla/firefox/k6*/lock > lrwxrwxrwx 1 heathen users 14 Dec 25 08:37 > .mozilla/firefox/k6z1oz36.default/lock -> > 127.0.0.1:7029 Ignore this. It is a lock file, not an actual link. The link name indicates the host it is running on and the process ID of firefox. Do not remove it, or you could start two instances of firefox at the same time, and hose your config files. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
