Hi,

Just make /home/ping/.gnome2/accels like this:

mkdir -p /home/ping/.gnome2/accels

And see if you need to set group permission on that file. But before playing with permissions, try to run firefox as usual.

firefox &

Good luck.

wtf? also Thunderbird has the same error and can only run when it is root.

'cause you created root user and you have installed tool with that... try use sudo instead!
who tell you to use root?? and I see kde package, why???

he can do that as root which is fine.

the problem here is you have tried to install both gnome and KDE and messed up the packages. you need to purge both and back to XFCE. then we can help you further.

in the meantime install chrome.

Sorry ostendali (correct me if I wrong) but if he has created root user is normal that when he start ffox with default user he has some error "/home/ping/.gnome2/accels': Permission denied"... root is another user

indeed!! I asked him if he has installed gnome or kde 'cause I seen something weird

in the meantime install chrome.

or chromium to be open =)

Thanks for everyone's help, i fixed the problem by removing all kde, gnome packages and Firefox then i installed Firefox again.
