Is there a way to launch this app?  Any help appreciated.
Read their release notes?  :-)

Ed:  The command on that page changed since I first ran it.  Here's
today's command:
[root localhost bin]# echo
"/usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.13">/etc/ld.so.conf.d/mozilla-i386.conf ; ldconfig
bash: ldconfig: command not found

You probably changed to root via "su" instead of "su -".  In that case you
would not have gotten root's environment which is why ldconfig is not being
found.

So, either "su -" and execute "ldconfig" or if you do "su" then type
/sbin/ldconfig.

Ed: Yahoo! I had never come across the "su -" option. But that's because I'm computer-challenged. :)

I logged in as "su -" and ran the command as it stands on the page, today, and the app launched. Thanks, much!!!
