I apologize for resurrecting this bug report from the dead, but I
anticipate that if I file a new report it will just be marked as a
duplicate of this one :)

I recently upgraded a few machines to Intrepid and am now experiencing this 
problem.  Same symptoms - 90% of the time firefox says it's already running or 
refuses to start at all (no windows or anything).  Firefox is already not 
running.  There's no stale lockfiles.
Remounting the NFS file system with nolock mitigates the problem, but that's 
obviously not an acceptable long-term solution

Setup:

Client: Intrepid Ibex up-to-date amd64 with /home mounted NFS
Server: FreeBSD 7 with a UFS2 volume exported


Could someone confirm and/or reopen the bug?

I am very willing to help troubleshoot, but I'll need some guidance - I
don't know too much about NFS locking.

Thanks,
Steven Schlansker
