I can confirm that I am also experiencing this bug. Firefox 2.0.0.8 under Ubuntu 7.04 behaved as follows. These two commands would open two different instances of Firefox, using two different profiles: firefox -P SomeProfile firefox -P SomeOtherProfile However, Firefox 2.0.0.8 under Ubuntu 7.10 behaves in the different, confusing (broken?) way as described in this bug; The second command above would only open a new Firefox window using the profile specified by the first command. I use multiple Firefox profiles every day, so I'm 100% sure that this behavior changed in the upgrade between 7.04 and 7.10. It did not change in a Firefox upgrade. The -no-remote trick above works. -- Cannot have two profiles (-P switch) opened simultaneously. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/39559 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
