I recently encountered two problems, one of which is a GNOME problem and the other a Firefox problem.
The Gnome Problem occurs when the user logs on and an error pops up stating a problem with GNOME TrashApplet. To fix this problem, start Synaptic from the Terminal
synaptic
and then lookup trash. Look for the gnome package from the search result, mark it, and then generate a script for the download you marked. Run the script, which will wget the gnome package, and then open the package to reinstall. This, I believe, fixed the problem.
The Firefox problem was that Firefox would simply not load. It stated that there was already a Firefox session in progress. This could be due to a corrupted upgrade in Firefox (which could be caused by an abrupt stop in the Firefox upgrade process). To fix this problem, type into the terminal
mv ~/.mozilla/firefox ~/.mozilla/firefox.old
This will move the broken firefox to ~/.mozilla/firefox.old. At this point all you need to do is start Firefox and it should work like brand-spankin' new.
