Question Oxygen KDE theme is not compatible with Firefox 5 but is not completely removed...


Hi.

I installed Oxygen KDE in Firefox 4 but when I upgraded to Firefox 5 it was not compatible. The problem is that traces remain and I cannot get another theme to appear properly.

I do notice that if I delete ~/.mozilla the problem is solved. However I have many addons installed and don't want to setup everything again.

Also in ~/.mozilla/.../Firefox there is a folder named OxygenKDE and if I delete it, Firefox auto creates a new OxygenKDE folder on FF startup.

Does anyone know another way to remedy this?

It works just fine here. Granted it says it isn't compatible. But it looks just fine.

You have to turn off compatibility check so Firefox 4 plugin can work on Firefox 5. Most of them are totally compatible as Firefox 4 and 5 are about the same if you exclude a new development model and two or three additions to the HTML5 featuresset.

To do this, you have to add a new registry in about:config. You can find it on google.
