As a father of two kids, I can testify that even the nipple is hardly
intuitive. Every kid (and mom) needs to learn how to use it. Just to
clear one myth.

I am certainly missing something here -- you are familiar with the Red Hat world and thus when you need desktops you choose Ubuntu? Have you heard about Fedora? Fedora 10 was released just now, and I think (given Qumranet is now part of Red Hat) it should have pretty good support for kvm. What do I miss?

If someone can confirm, I'll post a bug. Strange. I am a bug triager of (among others) all gecko-related bugs in the RH bugzilla, and I cannot recall to hear about a bug like this.

Your mileage may vary, but I have terrible experience with Linux Cisco VPN clients, so I would strongly suggest OpenVPN.

OK, if *that* didn't work, then I would ask really to pay a visit to bugzilla.redhat.com, component xorg-x11-drv-ati, attach xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

I think I saw couple of these in our bugzilla now and I wonder whether it is the same. Try to run gnome-default-applications-properties and take a look at what's set as your browser application. If it is /usr/lib/firefox*/firefox or something like that, then select the default Firefox and it should work. Does it help?

Now, who reports I hope this bug is publicly visible https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471193 otherwise just yes, IMHO (and it is not official statement by RH Gecko developers) whole business of Firefox checking being a default browser is unhappy relict of Windows browser wars and it should be eliminated in the Linux FF altogether.

I think you can have only one action (either -exec or -print),
but not sure about it. Anyway, my first instinct when things are
getting to be more complicated is to use while cycle, like this:
find . |while read FILE ; do
if grep "$FILE" '{}' >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then
echo "$FILE" >> ./found_files
fi

Of course, that's what I get from copying original text. Should
read:
find . |while read FILE ; do
if grep "$FILE" "$1" >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then
