Both the firefox and mozilla wrapper scripts probe for a running
mozilla/firefox, and if it's there will just ask that to open a new
window.
Turn turn off this annoying behaviour you can set the environment
variable MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1. So:
env MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 /home/mes-mate/firefox/firefox /tmp/somehtmlfile.html
Should do the trick.
