Well, that's debatable. But to be clearer ...

 From : http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/system-requirements.html

(the important bits...) :
     * Linux kernel 2.2.14 (with glibc 2.3.2, XFree86-3.3.6, gtk+2.0, 
fontconfig/xft and libstdc++5)

If you've already created profile #2, try and start firefox with the -P 
{profilename} switch .. eg "/path/to/firefox -P TorProfile". If that 
doesn't work, you can create a new (passwordless/nologin) user and start 
firefox with sudo (eg: "sudo -H -u torfox /path/to/firefox").

You can also create a profile from the CLI by doing "/path/to/firefox 
-CreateProfile {profileName}" and then run that one with the -P 
{profileName} switch.

If you still can't get if figured out, post all the requested info as a 
bugreport and somebody will look into it (over at mozilla.org).

Cheers,

~Mike.
