Hi.

After installing the latest sec-update for 10.2 firefox didn't start anymore!!
I got this: after a couple of seconds:
Enterprise:.mozilla>mozilla-firefox

** (mozilla-firefox-bin:14254): CRITICAL **: link_protocol_destroy_cnx: assertion `proto != NULL' failed

(mozilla-firefox-bin:14254): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Cannot open pixbuf loader module file '/etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders.lib': Too many open files
GConf-Fehler: Die Weiterleitung zur Kommunikation mit dem gconf-Dämon konnte nicht angelegt werden: Too many open files

(Gecko:14254): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Cannot create pipe for GnomeVFSProcess initialization: Too many open files
GConf-Fehler: Die Weiterleitung zur Kommunikation mit dem gconf-Dämon konnte nicht angelegt werden: Too many open files

Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.2/run-mozilla.sh: line 159: 14254 Segmentation fault "$prog" ${1+"$"}

Something like this:
    mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla.bak
    mozilla-firefox

did'nt help, except I got no error messsages.

So, Firefox is now really secure!

Any hints?
