Okay, Starting Firefox from the shell to create a new profile has
reveled a few errors.
-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----
Can't open /dev/console, error 13 Permission denied
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library libXt.so [libXt.so: cannot open

-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----
for libXt, I see that I have both the the 32b and the 64b copies but
that the 64b copy is missing the symbolic link.

For libflashplayer I removed the offending 32b library.
-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----
ki4...@spot:~$ sudo rm /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/libflashplayer.so
-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----
Further investigation found a broken link
/usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so - all these
differant plugins dirs is driving me nuts!

I think this got set by nswrapper in file
/usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/dirs.d/flashplugin-installer
-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----
ki4...@spot:~$ cat /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/dirs.d/flashplugin-installer
/var/lib/flashplugin-installer/
ki4...@spot:~$
-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----
So I removed the broken link and add what I suspect is the correct one.

I restarted Firefox and the only error I see is the permission on /dev/console
- not worring about that for now.
No change about flash. I disable extentions and plugins and no change
Here's my clipboard copy of Troubleshooting info.
