You probably realize this, but if you open Mozilla while Firebird is
running, or vice-versa, you'll just get another window of the one that's
already open.  You can't have Mozilla Browser and Firebird running
simultaneously--it's one or the other.

Gnome has recently entered 2.4 in unstable, which might disrupt a bunch
of things, although I haven't had any problems.

You might try experimenting with a different window manager or even try
running Moz or Firebird under KDE and see if you get the same result.
