On any attempt to minimize or "iconify" (if that's the word, haha) firefox, firefox dissapeared from screen, no icons on Toolbar, no way to pull firefox back.

If i load firefox again it would ask me to choose another profile, that's no good.

Anyone experiencing the same problem?

After it disappears, is it still running? You can check this by typing 'top' in the shell and seeing if firefox appears at all. Also are you running the firefox that comes with dsl or are you using the firefox extension?

It could just be a firefox problme, make sure it's not running, and go to the profile manager somehow.

Try the middle mouse button click on an empty space of the desktop.  This should give you the workspace menu as well as a list of iconified applications that you can click to restore.  If you don't have a middle mouse button, i think the same menu is available as a submenu under the "fluxbox menu" submenu.
