Description Amit Shah 2011-05-25 06:36:53 UTC
Description of problem:

When starting:

sandbox -X -t sandbox_web_t firefox

in F15 upgraded from F14, the sandbox window doesn't show up firefox.

When I tried it with a home directory, it did show firefox's 'updating add-ons' box.  Once that was done, though, firefox isn't shown.

Other apps show up fine in sandboxes.

Use the -W metacity switch and it will work.

For some reason that I have not figured out firefox does not work with the matchbox_windowmanager.

Yes, that works, thanks.
