Debian :: Install Adblockplus In Iceweasel?

Jun 22, 2010

I realise this ought to be trivial, but for some reason this installation is not working for me.

1. Install adblock 0.7.5.5-3 from Debian Lenny Synaptic

2. Restart IceWeasel

I expected to see Adblock plus listed in Tools>Add-ons>Extensions, but that page is empty. Also Edit>Preferences>Main>Manage Add-ons shows the same thing.

Browsing the forums I see what looks like lists of Plugins, Add-ons and so on which have been added to iceweasel.

How do I get adblock working? How do I get a printed list of extensions and plugins?

Debian :: Apt Can't Install All Dependencies For Iceweasel 5.0.3

Aug 8, 2011

I'm using Debian Stable and I followed the instructions from Debian Mozilla team [URL] on how to install the latest stable version of Iceweasel, but after I try to upgrade Iceweasel from Synaptic, it returns the following error message: Could not mark all packages for installation or upgrade The following packages have unresolvable dependencies. Make sure that all required repositories are added and enabled in the preferences.

Iceweasel:

Depends: xulrunner-5.0 but it is not going to be installed

Debian :: Xmarks Doesn't Install In Iceweasel

Dec 9, 2011

It's that simple. 1) through the toolbar, it's not one of the listed extensions.

2) going to xmark's website, and downloading it, it downloads a .xpi file. There is no where to place this file. there was no /usr/lib/mozilla/extensions folder, so i created it, and when adding the .xpi file, iceweasel didn't find it.

putting the stupid thing in /usr/bin/firefox/plugins also didn't work.

iceweasel is crap

Debian Multimedia :: Iceweasel Won't Install On Wheezy 7.8 Sparc

Jan 18, 2015

So the other day I installed Debian Wheezy on my Sun Blade 150. While the OS is installed fine, all the webkit based browsers continuously crash after a few pages. So, I tried to download IceWeasel since it wasn't installed when I tried installing Debain off the DVD. The only problem is, it won't install as the Xulrunner version it requests is xulrunner-24.0_24.5.0esr-1~deb7u1_sparc, however the only version available on the repositories is newer. Is there any way to get the older xulrunner version, or is there going to be a fix for IceWeasel soon on Sparc?

Debian Multimedia :: Iceweasel On Install Won't Follow Some Hyperlinks

May 26, 2011

I'm having some major issues with "Iceweasel" on Debian 6.0.1 (squeeze). I've done some extensive google searching but can't really find anything on this issue.

Basically, Iceweasel simply won't follow some links. It seems to spin for a second and then remain on the same page. I haven't been able to find any correlation between the type/style of links and whether or not the browser will work correctly or not when the link is clicked. Also, sometimes if I have multiple tabs open, I'll open gmail in a new tab and it will do nothing. If I exit the app and restart with one new tab, it will correctly bring up gmail (does this with other sites too gmail is just an example).

I actually use Chrome for most stuff now but need FF/Iceweasel for PHP debugging (a Zend Studio plugin not available in Chrome).

how to get more debug info form Iceweasel

I've thought about just installing Firefox but seems I have to do it manually and I'm not convinced that it would make a difference as supposedly the code is the same (?). I may just try it anyway as I'm out of ideas.

Here's the stats:

peter@sendai[vanilla]$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.32-5-amd64 (Debian 2.6.32-31) (ben@decadent.org.uk) (gcc version 4.3.5 (Debian 4.3.5-4) ) #1 SMP Mon Mar 7 21:35:22 UTC 2011
Iceweasel 3.5.16 (like Firefox 3.5.16)

Debian :: Iceweasel Extension / Debian Repositories Vs Mozilla

Jul 13, 2010

I've been wondering what's the advantages and disadvantages of installing an iceweasel extension from the debian repositories vs the addons.mozilla.org website. I can thus far see that extensions installed from the repositories can't be uninstalled from inside iceweasel. Is there any difference? Are they installed in different places? Are they always accessible to all users? Any difference at all?

Debian :: PDF Files In Iceweasel

Dec 6, 2015

Until recently I had no trouble reading PDF files in Iceweasel. Acrobat Reader would open without prompting. Now, after a recent re-install of Jessie, that does not happen. The browser just freezes when I point it to a PDF file. Reader is installed and shows up among Iceweasel's add-ons.

Debian :: Iceweasel Using Up All Memory

Feb 25, 2016

I just installed Debian on a new computer yesterday, it's more or less a fresh install. This morning I launched Iceweasel and it brought my computer to it's knees. I ran top, and found out that there was a process called "Web Content" using up 30 gigs of memory! Further experimentation shows that Iceweasel is fine until I open up a tab or two, and then it quickly begins consuming all my memory (I have 24 gigs) and swap space. I'm currently using Chrome, which is working fine, but I'd really prefer Iceweasel.

Debian :: Iceweasel Add - Ons In The Repos?

Aug 29, 2011

A few days ago, I noticed that flash wasn't working. I don't use flash often and have Flashblock guarding the gates so not quite sure when that happened. In the process of getting it running again I noticed a lot of Iceweasel add-ons are available in the Debian repos. In fact, deleting Flashblock from Firefox and switching to the one from the repos may be what fixed the problem (or it could have been the latest Iceweasel update which I reinstalled).

Anyway, my question is . . . just how do add-ons available via Synaptic and those from Firefox differ? And is it preferable and advisable to use the ones in Synaptic? Since I imported my old profile from Firefox to Iceweasel, I have a lot of standard add-ons rather than the Debian version.

Debian :: AdBlock Plus Not Working With Iceweasel

Jul 7, 2015

I have Inceweasel 31.8.0 installed on LXDE Debian Wheezy and I am trying to make AdBlock Plus work. The thing is that I get pop-ups from any site, Youtube ad videos, etc. all the time, just like I have nothing installed to prevent that.

I tried:

- Installing AdBlock from Iceweasel add-ons, with a suscription to easylist ;
- installing xul-ext-adblock-plus (also with the same suscription).

With each configuration or even with none of them, I get the same results as described above. Is there anything I can do ?

By the way, I don't get Youtube ad videos on Chromium with Adblock installed through the Chrome webstore.

Debian :: Iceweasel Crashes More Or Less Randomly

Feb 10, 2016

I have Iceweasel 38.6.0 on Jessie 8.3, and it seems to crash more or less randomly. It just suddenly disappears, and when restarted, it gives that "embarrasing"- thing. The pages reopen fine and it may take a day between crashes, or about an hour.

Where should I look for the reason of the crashing? Is there a log file or something somewhere?

My machine is old StinkBad T400. I'm using Cinnamon.

Debian :: YouTube Streaming In Iceweasel

Mar 19, 2016

The following url streams nicely in Chromium but Iceweasel complains that FlashPlayer needs to be installed!

[URL] ...

############------- EDIT -------############
This URL is a live stream of a news channel... NOT a fixed length/size video.
############------- EDIT -------############

I can't remember facing this problem with any other YouTube videos, just this one!

Searching around a bit I found an article from 2010 : [URL] ....

First interesting bit: If you're running Chrome or Safari as your main browser, Google's now offering up YouTube videos without Flash.

That's right—fewer system hangs, browser crashes, and other issues, and just straight-up video through HTML5 standards.

Debian :: Iceweasel 3.5.6 - Can't Get Java Working In It

Mar 11, 2010

After installing 3.5.6 from backports, applets stopped working. I installed the java-6-sun package but it's still not making it. Searched google but haven't found anything but some bug fixes. Also saw something about ipv6, but not sure if that's related. That seemed to affect java programs. I use jedit and that is working fine. I downloaded the latest SDK from Sun and created a link from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and /usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins and /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins to /opt/SDK/jdk/jre/plugin/i386/ns7-gcc29/libjavaplugin_oji.so. Prior to the update to 3.5.6, the plugins were working and I could get the ..... stuff etc.

Debian :: How To Get Info On Iceweasel + KDE Integration

Jul 31, 2010

I'm running Debian unstable on amd64 with KDE4 desktop. I know there exists KDE integration package, that enables iceweasel to use KDE file dialogs. In ubuntu its called kmozillahelper. There was similar packages in Debian (called differently as far as I remember). I happily used it in unstable, but several weeks ago it disappeared for some reason and I can not find it.info on iceweasel + KDE integration in Debian?

Debian :: Iceweasel Hangs When Launched Sometimes?

Jan 11, 2011

I am running Squeeze (Gnome desktop) and I'm experiencing some problems with Iceweasel. My problem is that sometimes Iceweasel just hangs when I launch it. I can see the cursor blinking 2-3 times in the adress bar and then it just locks up. I have tried a few different versions of iceweasel, both from stable (squeeze though), experimental and now a package from http://mozilla.debian.net/packages/ with iceweasel 4 beta.

All of them behaves the same way. They work for a while and then suddenly locks up when launched. The only way to get going again is to kill the process and delete the .mozilla directory. It is possible to launch the --safe-mode though but nothing with this mode lets me change anything to get a normal session going.' Also, it doesn't matter if I have extensions installed or not, it still behaves the same way with zero of them installed. How would I go about to debug this? If I launch iceweasel from the command line I get no output but I'm sure there is a way to get some more info to work with.

Debian :: Firefox/iceweasel - Flashplugin.so And ELF's?

Mar 4, 2011

I've been using Iceweasel for 4-5 months now, since I installed Debian 6.0 testing.It worked fine and I had to use flashplugin-nonfree from the repositories in order to get flash working, nothing new here.In my last apt-get upgrade, something broke. Not sure if it is the flashplugin or Iceweasel.I tried changing flashplugins (trying the 32bit one, trying the new 64bit, trying another package I found) but every time I go on ..... and click on a video, Iceweasel crashes.The only output I got was "sesmentation fault".So I tried with firefox and Iceape and they worked fine.However the firefox downloaded was 32bit, so I downloaded the 3.6.12 source and compiled it (Forgot to mention i'm on amd64, but who isn't nowadays?).Flashplugin works fine with firefox 64bit, browser doesn't crash, but I keep getting:

(firefox-bin:25463): Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead

Debian :: Iceweasel Safemode Only As Root?

Jun 7, 2011

I cannot run safemode as user. Iceweasel ignores safemode and opens a normal window. It works fine as root. I tried a slew of switches I found posted on the Mozillazine KB and elsewhere:

iceweasel --safe-mode
iceweasel -safe-mode
iceweasel --safemode
iceweasel -safemode

None of the above worked as user. I did not test all of them as root after the first one worked so don't know if they would or not. How can I get safe-mode to work as user? Do I need to add myself to a certain Group? Not a biggie but a bit of a pain to have to su to run safemode.

Debian :: Iceweasel / Firefox 4 Is Freezing

Jun 14, 2011

After using Iceweasel/Firefox 4 on Squeeze for a while (an hour or two), the bookmark toolbar becomes unresponsive and sometimes the folders (I have some bookmark folders), when clicked, will open but as soon as I move the cursor to hover over the link (to select it) the menu disappears. I never had the problem with Iceweasel/Firefox 3x. The problem is fixed by restarting the browser but that is not always a good solution nor SHOULD it have to be done.

Debian :: [PPC] Build Iceweasel 5.0 From Source

Jul 21, 2011

I run Debian Squeeze on the powerpc architecture and I'd like to install the newest Iceweasel on it. The Debain Mozilla repo only has binary packages for i386 and amd64 but provides sources.

So I did: apt-get source iceweasel

which resulted in the creation of these files/directories:

iceweasel-5.0/
iceweasel_5.0-3~bpo60+1.debian.tar.gz
iceweasel_5.0-3~bpo60+1.dsc
iceweasel_5.0.orig.tar.bz2

Debian Multimedia :: How Does Iceweasel Keep Itself Up To Date

Jan 4, 2015

I have been a casual Debian Wheezy user for quite some time now. And one of the things that alarms me is that how does Iceweasel keep itself up to date on the latest secuirty patches ? I also use Windows on my desktop and it is dual booted with Linux. In Windows I use Nightly build of FireFox. They update themselves almost everyday. Normal Firefox also seems to update pretty often. But Iceweasel only updates if I do an aptitude full-upgrade

And that is also once a month. So how is Iceweasel expected to be secure if there is such a long delay in the patches ? Iceweasel also does'nt have a "Check for updates" options like Firefox.

Won't we be better off using the normal Firefox on Debian distributions ? IMO that gives faster patches for security issues.

Also does Iceweasel use Flash Player or gnash ? Because running dpkg gives me the following output-:

Code: Select allsreyan@debian:/usr/share/dict$ dpkg -s gnash
dpkg-query: package 'gnash' is not installed and no information is available
Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.

Flash Player also has individual updates in Windows which is maybe once every 2 weeks. I also don't see that in Debian. Flash players need to be kept up to date since they are responsible for most security breaches.

I had started a thread some time ago where a user commented that Iceweasel was out of date and needed to be replaced by Firefox. [URL] .....

So why is the Debian community still sticking to Iceweasel ? Why not switch to Firefox like Ubuntu ?

Debian Multimedia :: Iceweasel Uses CPU Obnoxiously

Apr 14, 2015

Iceweasel uses to much computing resources without reason.

In my desktop, where I keep some system monitoring tools at close view, I could notice Iceweasel extensively using system resources, but of course memory is expected from whatever is being loaded on the webs, cpu however, it kept a steady 18% on my 6 core AMD FX6300, this is enough to keep the processor's temperature a whole ~20℃ above idle.

Since then, I've installed a proper watercooler to keep temps reasonable in this hot CPU. But still, that’s too much processing required for webbrowsing alone, and this is not considering heavier stuff like flash, youtube and etc.

Compared to KDE's proposed browser konqueror, and an new alternative Qupzilla, they're much lighter and consequently much faster.
