Ok, I'll be the first to admit that the 1024 x 600 screen on my EEE 1000H is a tad small. However, there are some ways you can get better value for your screen real estate in the Firefox browser, which I assume many of you use.

Before I tell you the addons I've used, let me show you a before and after

Question:

After much hair-pulling I've managed to get firefox 3 and thunderbird to play nice in intrepid when it comes to 'clicky' rss feed subscriptions. Some of the other solutions didn't work as thunderbird couldn't validate any feed that didn't start with http:// (ie: feed://) .. so here's a quick fix...

sudo nano /usr/local/bin/thunderbird-add-feed.sh

Get the i686 version you need from here:

ftp://releases.mozilla.org/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/

Extract this into your home directory.

Question:

This seems to only be a problem in Firefox, but there is no window border. I cannot resize or move the window. It just occupies the entire screen, with no border on top. The window spans the full screen, so there is no gnome menus, which I usually have on the top and bottom of my screen. Please help. Thanks.

Question:

Hello. I just got my ubuntu online and am using firefox 3.0 I have a lot of extensions/there are alot of settings to go through.
Is there an easy to transfer Firefox 3.0 extensions/settings/ect. from xp to linux. (When I Get ubuntu working on my other computers I will need to do this.) Preferably some method using a syncronization extension or saving to a flash card/usb stick. Though usb stick or flashcard is prefered.

Thanks for reading/help.

Flash works fine in Konqueror or Opera, but not Firefox. I've tried playing around with Gnash. And have installed flash several times from the repository. Can any one help?
