Recreating the launcher fixed it.


But I did not know about .xsession-errors.  Thank you!

I found this in errors:

share name MyLocalDrive truncated to MyLocal
Autoselected keyboard map en-us
PRINTER PRN1 to B4350 driver HP LaserJet IIP
Error: No such tab mode: chat
-- Exception object --
+ fileName (string) 'chrome://messenger/content/tabmail.xml'
+ lineNumber (number) 465
*

I don't know that it means anything.
