[Bug 73457] Re: MASTER "Firefox is already running, but is not responding" when /home is an NFS directory

[Siafu Linux]

I'm having the same problem as I posted in the forums at
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=992718.

I too have an NFS /home mount. Mine occurs if Firefox closes
unexpectedly such as if the power goes out or if I log out of Gnome
without closing Firefox first.

Deleting lock files and kill commands do not work and the only way I can
get it to open again is by editing ~/.mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini and
changing IsRelative=1 to IsRelative=0. Then Firefox will open, but as a
new profile - so all bookmarks and so on need to be manually added.

Reopening is a good idea stevenschlansker :-)
