Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox
After launching firefox I am unable to start any other new applications.
All the programs I started before firefox work fine and can open new windows.
For example, when I try to start synaptic from a terminal, I get the following error message:
ubuntu at pc:~$ synaptic
No protocol specified
(synaptic:7682): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0
For other applications the message is similar.
I first encountered this bug Friday, 6th of June. When I press the power button of my computer and the action screen shows up (with standby, logout etc.) the options shutdown and restart are missing, however they work in a terminal. Also after I logout and log back in, the problem is gone until starting firefox again.
I use Hardy Heron patched to the newest version.
