Ok then I guess that may be the problem, even though it has run in the past. DE is Unity and usually the 2D verson.

Any method of checking depedancies,or would simply reinstalling possibly help.

Thanks for the reply.

I do not see any option relating to proxy settings. Epiphany is only there as an aditional browser, mainly just in case the others do not work and I am not familiar with the...

Bump !

Is anyone able to offer advice, or say what further information you may require in order to provide suggestions please.

Thanks in advance.

I am still trying to fnd my feet with Ubuntu.

Epiphany is a lightweight (is it or was it the default ) browser but it is not working. I do not see options for troubleshooting and fixing it.

Maybe it would have been as easy to just start Firefox in safe-mode. Hold the shift key whilst launching Firefox, but do NOT use the reset option.

Firefox also has a reset option from safe mode,...

Another thought is that Windows lets you create sytem backup disks on to CDs or DVDs, so as long as the Laptop has an internal drive you could create your own system image.

It turned out to be messed up/missing preferences. To work with live bookmarks as the feed the relevant prefs and settings are:

One or two things are likely here, malware, or a more innocent explanation that causes a hang on exit. You mention Flash, and that could be important here. Firefox and Flash have been having problems...

Hi,
Anyone any suggestions on what I should do with this problem...

Note many of the Firefox problems with Flash Player relate to WINDOWS and use of Adobe's protected mode. Flash 10.3 does not use protected mode, but it is possible to disable protected mode in later...

This may have some relavance to your problem.

Has anyone got a link to the documentation for the documentation for the reset icons command ?

Thanks both of you for the rapid respnses.

I am not entirely certain I understand the question.

This is a minor problem, and possibly it will turn out it is me forgetting how it works rather than anything being broken.


If it is something broken or interfering with the launcher then I...

Thanks to everyone for the replies. This is not a subject I have had time to get back to yet. I was noticing some truncation, but have not had time to study and try the answers yet.
