on my imac, after a fresh install, when i try to launch an app (firefox in this example) i get an error saying "no windows found" on my ibook it says this also, but the app opens anyway. the imac has 2004.1 with the 2.6.8 kernel on it.

you wrote that the app starts anyway, that`s the correct behaviour. what`s your deal ?

no, fender wrote that the apps still start up. on my ibook i said, it gives the error and then starts up, but on my imac it gives the error and doesn't start up. what gives?

EDIT: reading my first post, i apologize, i should have made it a bit clearer

k, i was playing around as root, and found that firefox starts as normal when in root. i emerged mozilla, and this problem also occurs, and needs root access to start it. so far, mozilla and firefox, i have found, both start as normal. the only other apps on the computer are MOAGG, supertux, and Gaim, all of which start as expected.
