Release Firefox 8.0 beta 3


Maybe a hint (i really don't know if the problem is linked to extensions) :


Look at : components/nsExtensionManager.js



Code:
target.permissions |= PERMS_FILE;



Replace with :





Code:
try {

target.permissions |= PERMS_FILE;

}

catch(e) {

ERROR("(jc)can't set target permissions for "+entryName+". Probably due to FAT partition... continue install");

}

New -4 build to try...

For me it works perfectly now. Seems to be a little faster than FF6 (As far as I can remember).


I did NOT remove the old folder in appdata. Don't know whether it'll work if you remofe it.


My SD-Card is Fat32.

Works here too. I started it after removing the appdata-folder, on HF6 (installed from pnd) and with an sd-card formatted with ext-fs.


I will remove my firefox-test-pnds, hoping they are not needed anymore.


Thank you for the update.
 
Working here too too !


No need to remove appdata.


Thx.

Still no joy getting into gmail from FF. Is that going to start working at some point on V8?


I downloaded the most recent set from the PNDstore and gmail is a nogo.


Thank you.

Have a look at Galaxis' post: http://boards.openpa...60/page__st__80


Which explains the changes needed to get gmail to work with FF.

When I did the first version of FireFox, Fennec and Chromium, I included updated SSL Libraries to make that work.


Should I send you the libraries I used?

Please! Seeing as FF8 has been officially launched, when the source appears I'll do a build. Which hopefully will work...


Although with my new job at Imagination, it might be a few days... :D

I would be interested as well..

It looks like it's not the openssl library. I've build 8.0 against the latest openssl, and have the same problem as before.


EDIT:


Also, the gmail problem didn't occur in earlier versions that I built of FF. And I've seen it come and go in one version...

I know, it was one of the other couple of libraries I've included.


I'll try to package them up tonight.
 
I never tried Chrome on the Pandora but I will, if a new and up-to-date version is out. :) Firefox (8.3b) runs stable on my Pandora and some things like Google Maps or html5 stuff are even faster in Firefox than in Midori (my main browser). I should make some browser speed tests. ^^

so whats causing the SSL sode of the browser to not work? do the required ssl librays not compile for pandora? or are they not compatible with out kernel?
