no screen flashes here, but look for cpu monitor to return to near zero after several seconds...

Maybe a future version could have an xmessage (if $DISPLAY is set) informing the user of success or failure.

The gtk2.dsl has to be both loaded and run from menu before attempting
to run the firefox-gtk2-1.0.4.tar.gz or firefox-gtk2-1.0.4.uci
( I didn't see a firefox-gtk2-1.0.4.dsl , as you listed in your earlier post. )

Again, running the firefox-1.0PR does the same thing as running gtk2.dsl.
I will remove the firefox-1.0PR from the repository to diminish confusion.

1. Load the gtk2.dsl ( wait for icons/desktop to flash )
(I use mydsl button in emelfm, or command "mydsl-load gtk2.dsl" in a shell)

2. Rt click on desktop to open menu, select myDSL, select "Update to GTK2"
( no screen flashes here, but look for cpu monitor to return to near zero after several seconds...)

3. Now load either the firefox-gtk2-1.0.4.tar.gz or .uci versions.
    ( same method we did the gtk2.dsl at first )

4. Try new firefox icon, or rt. click to menu, > myDSL > Firefox-gtk2-1.0.4

I just tested both versions from a pristine LiveCD boot,
and they are working fine for me.

What kind of DSL install are you using for this?

Ah,

I missed step number 2, running the update to gtk2 (I assumed it had done it) thanks for that and the great work (everyone)
