I am running Linux Mint Maya 13. I update Firefox in the normal way this morning through Synaptic Package Manager and, since the, I have been unable to open Firefox in normal or safe mode. The latest crash ID is: bp-e1ba7705-399f-464b-8fb4-5aea52130325 I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox but the problem is still there. Any help you can give would be much appreciated. Frank

Hi Phillip, Thanks ever so much for that. Yes, I was running that theme and changing it allowed Firefox to start. Most grateful as this has saved me a l;ot of grief. Cheers Frank
