Testing thread about nothing (I'm trying to diagnose an LQ-related Firefox issue)

Salix anyone?

JimBrewster · 10-25-2011, 09:23 AM

Or perhaps SalixOS?

Successful Slackware string:

Code:

Midori/0.3 (X11; Slackware/Linux; U; en-us) WebKit/531.2+

Now back to less important things!

Does anyone know how to get fedora icon with firefox 7

this is what I tried

general.useragent.vendor = Fedora
general.useragent.vendorSub = linux
general.useragent.vendorCommrnt = 15

also did

general.useragent.vendor = Fedora
general.useragent.vendorSub = Fedora
general.useragent.vendorCommrnt = 15

What version of Firefox are you using? You might try using something like this in general.useragent.override:

Code:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Arch Linux x86_64; rv:7.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0

…replacing Arch Linux x86_64 with Fedora Linux <whatever your CPU arch is>, and changing the FF version to whatever version you're using.

Technically, when FF comes pre-configured to send appropriate OS/distro information in the useragent string(s), it's the package maintainer(s) who ha(s|ve) done the configuring, not FF itself.

Blame whoever maintains the Firefox package(s) for Fedora.
