Hi All, I, too, am chasing down a problem with Firefox on Lubuntu problem. It keeps on crashing with SIGILL (illegal instruction). Now it is late, I'm off to bed but I do have a couple of insights.
* If you are running a GUI based programme and it fails to start correctly, fire up a terminal and run it from there. You might see some useful error messages. * If you are left without a functioning web-browser, do a "sudo apt-get install lynx" in a terminal (removing the quote marks) and then use lynx, a text based web browser, to access the Internet. * If Firefox is giving problems, start it in a terminal with the command "firefox --debug" (again, removing the quotes). This starts it in a debugger. I'm going to explore this further tomorrow and will try to provide more helpful info about this.
