SolusOS User Agent Icon


I am currently playing with Solus, mostly because I have been impressed by how Ikey, the Solus project leader, comports himself on the Late Night Linux podcast.

In Firefox on Solus, I have configured my user agent string to name Solus, but I notice LQ is not picking up on it, but, rather displays the generic penguin. Here's the string:

Code:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; SolusOS Linux x86_64; rv:54.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/54.0
What am I doing wrong?

(Solus does appear to be a nice piece of work. It certainly will not wean me away from Slackware, Debian, or Mageia, but if you are open to trying a different distro, you may want to give ti a look.)

We don't currently have an icon for SolusOS, but if there's interest we can certainly add one.

Thank you, Jeremy. I think that's a most reasonable position.
