[Bug 232005] [NEW] Firefox is already running, but is not responding...

[Fred]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

I am using Ubuntu 8.04 with Mozilla Firefox 3.0 beta 5.

Sometimes when I close Firefox, or it crash, and I open it quickly after, then I get this error message;
* "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."

Very annoying.

To start Firefox then, I have to open the terminal and type "killall
firefox" and click on the icon again to make it start.

** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu)
