finally, after several start trials I got it started, why ever i had to try
several times... :( I selected 'Don't import anything' and then it started
as used to... but now I'd like to copy ack my olf bookmarks and the history
would be nice too. how do I do that? I copied
backup/firefox/s0wlpv22.default/bookmarks.html to
~/.mozilla/firefox/5u3e3jtp.default/bookmarks.html... but it doesn't seem
to be everything I have to copy to get back my bookmarks...how do I get
them back? Thank you! btw: the statusbar is still the same... :( so we
missed the goal... :(
