I've been having the same problems as the rest of you. CentOS 5.3 and CentOS 5.4... I switched to Fedora Core 12 and am still experiencing this problem. All partitions are ext4 except for /home which is still ext3. I have run with FF 3.5 and FF 3.6 including nightly build versions with the same problem. I have run with the new KDE (yuk) AND then switched to KDE (yuk) experimental WITHOUT any change in behavior.

Do "we" know what is being locked by FF? Is it the same for all cases?

When I issue this command, "ps -efadlcL | grep firefox" I see the original FF and all threads running and another instance trying to start. The only way to resolve this conflict that I can see is to kill the owner of the threads. This will allow FF instance 2 to continue.
