Hi,

I'd appreciate if somebody could help me to solve this mystery.

I've just bit-copied the root and usr partition to another machine with 
identical hardware.

So, both contain firefox-4.0.1-r1 and xulrunner-2.0.1-r1 .
On the original machine, firefox starts without any problems
while on the cloned machine it always reports
Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.2.15 and 1.9.2.15.

and

xulrunner-2.0  --register-global

didn't help either.

Many thanks for any idea?

Helmut.

Just re-emerging firefox fixed this - but why (tar preserves file 
times) ?

Still interested in the "why"
Helmut.

Permission problems?
Is id of user the same on both machines?

id <username>

I've tried it even as 'root'.
