    Re: request: Firefox 1.0.4 backported

    I've installed the firefox version which was suggested by firefox to get to the addon page. it's the installer version and it worked fine. But I usually don't like installer so I've also tried the normal version.
    Both are working fine, I guess that there is a problem with the ubuntu version. I prefer the ubuntu version because some of the plugins don't work with the one from firefox, even if java, flash etc is installed

    I didn't use the one on mozilla's page but I updated the version in PclinuxOS to 1.04 and it works perfectly; exploit not working and I can access the mozilla add-ons page hope we get it working in Ubuntu soon.

    Ah now that is a different story, it's asking for me to upgrade to 1.0.4. I'll have to check my configs and see why it's doing that...

    Exclamation Errors installing from staging

    When I try to install the firefox_1.0.4 packages (main and gnome-support) from backports-staging, dpkg gives me an error message:

    Hmm, that's a WIERD message... make sure you have enough disk space and your filesystem isn't corrupted.

    Can anyone else confirm this?

    I don't think that disk space is a problem.

    (don't worry about the Windows partition)

    Furthermore, the backport hosed Firefox 1.0.3, requiring me to reinstall Firefox.

    Re: request: Firefox 1.0.4 backported

    if someone is still suffering from the problem that they can't visit firefox addons page here's the solution
    go to about:config
    search for general.useragent.vendorSub
    change it from 1.0 to 1.0.4
    and it should work
