I am unable to reload a page using Firefox 14.0.1 under Fedora 8. Neither F5 nor Ctrl+R do anything, or any combination with Ctrl or Shift. There is also no View / Reload option. The "reload current page" button also does not work. This makes it quite difficult to navigate the web. Please help quickly!
