Konqueror Can Browse; Firefox Cannot
I updated KDE & Firefox to the latest Mandrake cooker versions.
Now I have a strange problem: Firefox cannot resolve domain names any more. Konqueror AND ping can, so it isn't a DNS problem specifically. I looked in Firefox's proxy settings, but it is correctly using "direct connection to the internet". What could be going on here? |
Type in an IP address and see what happens.

Sorry, I should have been more explicit. Firefox works if IP addresses are supplied, not with domain names.
I downgraded to 1.0.1 and that works without problems. |
New Firefox 1.0.2 requires new nss and nspr
Hi,
As you have, I have had problems with the new version of Firefox running under Mandrake Linux 10.1 with come cooker stuff. I've been trying to sort this out since the 1.0.2 RPM version came out to no avail until now. I finally realised that maybe, just maybe, the reason that the new Firefox wasn't working for me was because I was using the wrong libraries (libnss3 and libnspr4 in Mandrakes case). So I updated those libraries from 1.7.2-11mdk (10.1 install) to 1.0.2-5mdk (cooker) versions and hey look at that it's all working again. I've also updated my version of Thunderbird to 1.0.2-2mdk and that works too. :-) Hope this helps out. |
