Hello Everyone !
Somehow can't make FireFox from release 2.2.3 to work. It simply starts in
the background with 100% utilization without even opening a window.
Nothing in logs... any ideas are ?

Hi,

The current stable version of Alpine Linux is 2.3.3, and if I remember correctly, there were some big updates to the desktop environment going into the 2.3 series.  Could you give that a try and let us know if you still have the same issue?

Jeff

Thanks Jeff,
Upgrade to 2.3.3 done the trick

echo http://nl.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v2.3/main > /etc/apk/repositories
apk update && apk add -u -f apk-tools && apk upgrade -a
reboot
