Description Yi Quang (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-10-29 19:42:35 UTC
A lot of people have been experiencing problems with the -remote command for
Mozilla applications (Firebird in this case).  This problem is caused because
the ebuild does not set MOZ_ENABLE_XREMOTE.  It can be easily corrected by
adding this to the ebuild:
export MOZ_ENABLE_XREMOTE=1.  This will save a lot of people headache's :) Also,
for the devs that are interested, take a look at this page:
http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/xpfe/bootstrap/nsAppRunner.cpp#1662, for
other things you might want to set/not set.

I think this is fixed these days in firefox, etc.  Please re-open if it's still a problem.
