that's odd. after I installed it I was able to run it as a normal user. It asked me to move my preferences over but I did not have to run it as root. maybe some people have the wrong permissions set on their prefs dir.


as i pointed out, we now work around this issue so theres no need to run as root first. the problem is not related to prefs directories either, and no, removing your old profile directories first will not help the situation. the problem is something like that some files need to be created in /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox on first run, which only root has the power to do. either way, its all irrelevant now, because the ebuilds work around the problem.

<rant>Alright I got AdBlock installed! But it doesn't work! Selecting "Block *" from the menu doesn't add anything to the list of blocked elements. And adding things to the list manually works, except it doesn't actually block anything!

This is by far the roughest transition I've experienced since using firefox/bird. I've at least gotten used to the fonts and the icons, but I NEED MY ADBLOCK!

You made sure to install the Adblock compatible with 0.9 right? It works fine for me so.... You're sure that it's enabled and such right?

Wow, I just noticed this. It happens on 0.9 and today's trunk build. I searched mozilla's bugzilla, and found a few bugs, but I'm not sure which ones apply here.

The horizontal bar actually moves a little bit so maybe it's in the code.

You can change the GUI in ~/.mozilla/firefox/default.xxx/chrome/userChrome.css - for example I have:
Code:
menu[label="Go"] { display: none !important; }
* { font-size: 9pt !important }

You can add to this using standard CSS.

There are also some font configuration settings in $APPDIR/greprefs/all.js which you can override in ~/.mozilla/firefox/default.xxx/user.js - for example with:
Code:
user_pref("font.FreeType2.enable", true);
user_pref("font.FreeType2.unhinted", false);
user_pref("font.antialias.min",        8);
user_pref("font.directory.truetype.1", "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype");
user_pref("font.directory.truetype.2", "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF");


In case you want a binary build with SVG enabled, I have several available at http://pryan.org/mozilla/firefox/lokean/0.9/


Before you install firefox-0.9 you should remove 0.8 and the ~/.phoenix and/or ~/.firefox directories (0.8 has incompatible themes, extensions and a few other things). You can save your bookmarks.html, key3.db and signons.txt and move those into the new profile. You will have to (re)install (0.9 compatible) extensions and themes which are available at:
http://update.mozilla.org/
http://www.extensionsmirror.nl/index.php?showtopic=284
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=79513


Thanks yngwin! That helps a lot!

And I found this:

Old theme: Qute is the theme as it appeared last in the nightlies/cvs builds. It is a further developed form of the default theme of 0.8, which is available as Qute Retro.

AdBlock: I'm using this, which works fine with 0.9.
Thanks for the Qute Retro tip. I'll try the Adblock version that you're using too. Hopefully that'll work for me.

Edit: That AdBlock didn't work. I'm re-compiling firefox right now, but I also found a thread on the mozilla forums (don't have link handy -- but it's mentioned right next to the "Install Now" link for the extension (just didn't see it earlier :oops: )) that says there is a problem with the nightly37 build so that it doesn't work (not sure why it worked for yngwin) and that the nightly35's installer doesn't work, so the guy in the thread merged the two to make one that installs, and works. So, once I've re-compiled firefox I'll give it a try.

Okay, well the thread I was talking about before didn't help me. (It was this thread by the way)

When I try to install that version, AdBlock appears in my list of extensions, and then disapears after about a quater of a second.

When I try to install the one from Mozilla, it installs just fine, but it doesn't work AT ALL! Selecting block * (* meaing, iFrame, object, image, etc...) doesn't do anything.

Manually adding things (both from the adblock preferences, and from list blockable elements) adds them to the list of things to block, but they don't actually get blocked! If I select "List Blockable Elements" it doesn't even list a damn thing!

I'm suffering through ad-hell right now. I'm going to go crazy from all the flashing images!!!

Am I the only one having this problem??? I've tried uninstalling the extension and reinstalling. I've tried removing ~/.mozilla and reinstalling the extension. I've tried reinstalling firefox (both bin and from source). NOTHING WORKS!!!

If you have any idea how to remedy this, please help me.

Thanks

SOLVED!!!! :D :D :D :D :D (sort of)
I used this link http://adblock.mozdev.org/adblock-0.5-dev.xpi to install it. It doesn't add it to the extension menu (so I don't know how that's going to affect future versions) but it at least it works! Now I can finally block ads and enjoy firefox again!

Edit: the above link only installs sucessfully on mozilla-firefox-bin (for me at least, but I seem to be the only one having such extreme problems anyways)

Sorry to be hogging this whole thread, but there's some strange things going on with this release.

The binary version fixed the asking twice to save passwords bug, but the source version didn't. Why is that?

Another thing, the Manage Bookmarks menu seems to be really buggy. It's even worse in the binary than the from source one. It has crashed firefox twice on me with the binary one (whereas the souce one would just hang for a few seconds at a time)

The horizontal scrollbar on these forums (as mentioned above) seems strange.

Slashdot sometimes renders all screwey (also mentioned above).

Right clicking on the default toolbar bookmarks and selecting delete will not delete them in the binary version. It worked after one install of the source version for me, but other installations didn't (I've recompiled several times trying to get AdBlock to work).

IMHO, this release seems more like a nightly build than a point release. So, personally, I think I'm going to switch back to nightly builds until 1.0 is released, so I can watch the bugs get worked out.

Or maybe, I'll just switch back to 0.8, I just don't know yet.

So does mine, but if you notice the trend in this thread, everybody seems to be having different problems.

That's why I stated earlier that, IMO, this should not have been the final 0.9 release.

these problems might not necessarily be firefox problems. is he talking about the back button on the browser or on his mouse? is he using a broken theme? are some goofy extensions inerfering with something?
