Please include the version of both firefox and xulrunner in your report.
[floki@dhcppc5 ~]$ firefox Error: Platform version '1.9b3pre' is not compatible with minVersion >= 1.9b4pre maxVersion <= 1.9b4pre [floki@dhcppc5 ~]$ rpm -qa firefox firefox-3.0-0.beta3.31.nightly20080229.fc9.x86_64 [floki@dhcppc5 ~]$ rpm -qa xulrunner xulrunner-1.9-0.beta3.31.nightly20080229.fc9.i386 [floki@dhcppc5 ~]$
Notice that xulrunner is a 64 bit (x86_64) package and firefox is a 32 bit (i386) package. Of course they aren't compatible.
