I have been experiencing the same problem. I keep my profile on an SMB file share so I can sometimes run Firefox from Windows XP and sometimes from Ubuntu. When it occurs under Ubuntu, I can repair it by running Firefox instead from Windows XP and immediately exiting. When I open it under Ubuntu, the problem is repaired.
The next time it happens, I'll check permissions on the file share to see if I can spot the difference before and after opening under XP. -- Firefox 3 bookmarks lost after unclean shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241609 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
