Browser configuration

Posted in Geek Stuff at 7:22

Well, it’s been a while since I tried to share my browser setup and it has changed a fair bit. (For example, I installed InfoLister which allows me to quickly generate a list of installed
firefox extensions.) So, here is my current setup. I’ll probably be adding an ad-blocking related extension within the next few days since the browser is now quick enough for each image to make a noticeable difference in page load times.

Mozilla Deer Park Alpha 2

Mozilla Deer Park Alpha 2

If you run Mozilla Firefox on Linux, you’ve probably noticed, among other things, that:
* Its Open/Save dialogs are custom-designed so you can’t use your GTK+ 2.x bookmarks. (Firefox always requires GTK+ 2.x so please don’t remind me about KDE’s folder bookmarks.)
* It takes noticeably longer to render a page on Linux than it does on Windows.

Deer Park is the codename for the upcoming Firefox 1.1 release and both of those problems are fixed. I can vouch for this because I am posting this entry using Deer Park alpha 2.
