This also happens whenever more than a single X server is involved, so that for example, if I start Firefox on my main display (:0) and then try to run Firefox on my second display (:1), I'm prompted to choose an alternate profile. If I'm working at home and try to tunnel an instance of Firefox running on my work PC, I'm prompted to choose an alternate profile. I don't want to create a "left-hand-monitor" profile or a "work-from-home" profile; I simply want to open another browser window with all the same profile information that I've already set up. > I want to disable this profile business: any clues? You and me both. A simpler, single-profile behavior would seem to be a more useful default. -- John Kodis. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
