desktop user cannot see del.icio.us toolbar in Firefox


Hello,

I've just installed an Ubuntu 9.04 to a Lenovo N500 laptop and as the default user (ie with root privileges) I have installed Flash 10 using dpkg -i install_flash..10.deb and delicious toolbar using Firefox internal add-on system.

Later I've created a "desktop user" and logged in as a desktop user. In Firefox, Flash 10 is ok, (e.g. UTube is functional) but there's no delicious toolbar in any way!

How to bring back delicious in desktop user? Could it be something to do with file permissions? I need your suggestions,

thanks

When you installed flash, you did a system-wide install. But additions through the add-on menu are on a per-user basis, so each user can customize Firefox. User customizations go into ~/.firefox or ~/.mozilla or somesuch.(I'm on a Winbloze box right now, or I'd check..)

Just repeat the del.icio.us add-on as the regular user and it should work.

Hey it worked out as you've said. Just re-added delicious toolbar again as the desktop user. Well the point was if the desktop user had sufficient privileges to do that and I found out it really had.
so it's alright now, thanks!
