This sounds more a Firefox question/distribution-specific question than a KDE question. That stated, what distribution are you using, and what is its process for launching firefox? I'm using Debian Unstable, and as far as I can tell, it is working the way you want it to work, as /usr/bin/mozilla-firefox is a Bourne shell script, containing, among other things, the following relevant lines: # If there is no command line argument at all then try to open a new # window in an already running instance. if [ "${ALREADY_RUNNING}" -eq "1" ] && [ -z "$1" ]; then exec $MOZ_CLIENT_PROGRAM "xfeDoCommand(openBrowser)" 2>/dev/null >/dev/null fi -- Alex Nordstrom http://lx.n3.net/ Please do not CC me in followups; I am subscribed to the kde list. ___________________________________________________ .
