I submitted this problem before, I had one answer requesting the output of "yum info firefox" I submitted, If there was a subsequent answer maybe I missed. So here I have an HP laptop zv600 and a desktop Dell 8300. Dell works fine through out all the update, HP lockup and after several try uninstall and reinstall doesn't lock any longer but it doesn't load. here are the yum info for both PC:
Dell desktop [vinny@localhost ~]$ yum info firefox Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit adobe-linux-i386 17/17 Installed Packages Name : firefox Arch : i686 Version : 3.5.8 Release : 1.fc12 Size : 17 M Repo : installed
From repo : updates

HP laptop [vinny@laptop ~]$ yum info firefox Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit Installed Packages Name : firefox Arch : i586 Version : 3.5.8 Release : 1.fc11 Size : 17 M Repo : installed

The only difference that I can see is that Dell has the release 1.FC12 and HP has release 1.FC11, seeing that I reinstalled few times but it all the way install the same release. is there any thing I can do to get firefox back?
Are you running Fedora 12 on the Dell, and Fedora 11 on the HP? And what are the basic hardware specs on each. And did you do clean installs or upgrade installs? Are you dual/multi booting? And if so, what OSes?
