Firefox do not starts from Panel
Hi
I am facing a problem related firefox and some other applications like DocumentViewer (evince). I can run the firefox from terminal by just giving command "firefox" but when I made its shortcut in panel and try to run through that panel shortcut , the mouse coursor just becomes busy for while and nothing happen. The same happens for evince . Where I can launch other aplications like eclipse, terminal, and system monitor from panel.
I am using RHEL5 on intel 32bit machine.
What I tried is :
1. changing the command of the panel shortcut as "firefox %u" , no progress
2. inserting the path "/usr/lib" into PATH variable , Firefox is installed in this path. but no progress
