What user are you running Mozilla as? root? If not, did you change
permissions on /usr/lib/mozilla/chrome?
In my case, I did the following:
- I added a group 'mozchrome' to the system.
- I did a recursive modification to groups and privs to /usr/lib/mozilla
changing the group to 'mozchrome' and adding group write privs.
- I added my standard userid to the 'mozchrome' group.
This apparently allows me to add new chromes under Mozilla. It is
bassfuckingackwards as hell.
