Hello!

I have recently switched to linux (Ubuntu 8.0) and installed IDL(v7.0)
using all default settings. I am experiencing following problem with
help system.

whenever I seek help using command "?" or click on menu "help-> Help
Content", IDL opens firefox but only error page displayed stating
"while trying to retrieve the URL: http:/127.0.0.1: ...connection
refused". But if I start idlde with super user privilege, help is
displayed normally.

It appears to me more a linux problem than IDL problem, but for me it
is happening while using IDL and in case anyone has exprienced similar
problem before, can throw light on it.

Thanking you in advance
