Software :: Desktop User Cannot See Del.icio.us Toolbar In Firefox?
Feb 5, 2010
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 have Adblock and a bunch of other add-ons installed on Firefox. When I boot up and then start Firefox- the addon icons appear in/on Firefox's tool bar.
IF....I close Firefox and start it again the addon icons aren't on the tool bar or, like Ghostery, at the bottom of the screen...I think it's called the status bar.

I use Kubuntu 9.10. All packages are up-to-date. The problem: When opening a new window in firefox, the new window forgets the toolbar settings. So when I start firefox and the first window shows up, it shows my toolbar settings correctly, which is pretty minimalistic actually (no buttons, bookmark menu, google searchbar, etc.). But when I then open a new window from the original one, the new window has forgotten my toolbar settings and shows all the buttons, the searchbar, etc..
This happens irrespective from if I hit Ctrl+N, or print firefox after hitting Alt+F2 (which just opens a second window since the firefox process is already running). What can I do? I read in some other post that you should delete some settings file that might have gone corrupt, but I have done this and it did not help.

I set up all my icons on the bookmarks toolbar, but after restarting all the icons are the same one.
i.e. I have 10 reddit bookmarks and no gmail,ubuntu etc. Only happens on this machine, not my work machine that has ubuntu10.10 as well.

In linux version of firefox (specifically in my case Debian's rebranded Iceweasel), folders of bookmarks in the personal toolbar show a little down arrow on the right of the name. It serves no real purpouse and just takes up horizontal space, is there a way to remove it?

I have been working for the last three months with Ubuntu 10 on a destop. Doing just fine and loving it. I decided to try a new position for the toolbar that sits at the top of the screen. I did a right click and moved it to the right side of the scree, didn't like the look of that. Right click on the bar and moved it to the left, didn't like that either, so moved it to the bottom. having done all that I thought I could put it back at the top but alas, I can not right click on the Toolbar.
It seems as though the two bars are fighting each other at the bottom of the screen.I would like to go back to the default position at the top of the screen. I do have a terminal window available to me on the desktop so if I could find out the command line to type in, I should be able to reset my tool bar. Being new I have no idea what this command would be.

Is it possible to tweak 11.04 to show the old toolbar at the top of the desktop page? If I want to put apps on the desktop how do I do that from the apps page?

While I was trying to drag the Desktop icon to the places sidepane in nautilus file browser so that I can have it above Documents icon, I accidentally dropped it in Documents icon. I immediately deleted the "Desktop" shortcut that was created in "/home/user/Documents" but it was too late already and the damage has been done. When I try to create a new document on my desktop, it says "Error while coying to Desktop There was an error getting information about the destination. Show more details Error stating file '/home/user/Documents/' Desktop':No such file or directory" Now, I know that my desktop now is pointing me to a location in Documents folder which doesn't exist at all. I tried looking for any available settings/options in gconf-editor, but only in vain.

I've set up a second user for myself on my laptop.
My user on the laptop is 'tiger'
Let's call the second user 'jrdobbs'
I would like to log on to gmail/facebook/etc using the jrdobbs, but I don't want to switch users via X... I just want a second instance of firefox open, which stores all of its login information under /home/jrdobbs.
My naive attempt looked like this:
Code:
su -l -c "firefox" jrdobbs
Here was my thinking:
start firefox under 'su jrdobbs' ... firefox should store its files under the current user's $HOME/.mozilla
[Code].....

I have a weird Issue that just started today. Ill open up a new tab in Firefox and the screen goes black and takes me back to the log in screen. Im using Lucid Lynx. If it helps it mostly happens on flash based sites. I have flash block installed but it doesn't always help. Also it happens on random sites. But im not sure why this would log me out.

I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 and from my id which has administrator rights, I am unable to save any files as well as unable to change the location in firefox. The firefox version is also in the snapshot as well as the options window. Is it that my profile has been corrupted or is there some bug in firefox.

I have specified firefox should startup using the following procedure:
System > Preferences > Startup Applications > Add
And used the following details:
Name=firefox
Command=/usr/lib/firefox-3.6.11/firefox-bin
But it doesn't start up. I tried also adding a shortcut to the following location:
/home/USER/.config/autostart/SHORTCUT-TO-FIREFOX
The account I'm trying to get it working on is unprivileged. I'm sure it was working yesterday but can't swear if I had added extra permissions at that stage.

i was wondering if it is possible to run a program such as firefox or any other internet program as its own user (ie user firefox), but still in my desktop session, this way the program would have its own home folder and store all the data there, while i use it normally, i was trying to set the suid on the firefox binaries but then it doesn't starts at all.

I'm trying to watch TV shows off of ABC.com, ABC.com is sending back the following warning:
Code:
Platform not supportedYou appear to be using an unsupported operating system or Web browser. In order to use our video player, we require:Windows XP/Vista with Internet Explorer 6+, Firefox 3
Mac - Firefox 3+, Safari 3+
I think that this is bogus, and I probably need to switch my user agent so that it shows the correct version of firefox, but shows my OS as Windows XP/Vista or Mac. Here is the output of about:config showing all of the user agent strings:
Code:
general.useragent.extra.firefox;Firefox/3.5.7
general.useragent.locale;en-US
general.useragent.security;U
[code]...
As I understand it, these strings get assembled into the user agent header, which looks a little bit like this:
Code:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20100106 Firefox/3.5.7 I pulled this from Wireshark, after changing the user agent values above... obviously the changes that I'm making in Firefox aren't affecting what's going out over the wire. Right now, I'm in 'press and guess' mode... if someone can give me a better idea of how user agent strings are actually set in Firefox, what the individual values are, I might have a slightly better shot at figuring this out. This is, of course, only the first part of the problem. If ABC is using something proprietary to send out their video, I may still be out of luck...

I find myself in a bit of a pickle. Following a yum update which included FF 3.0.8 FireFox stopped working details can be found in Fedora Bug 494255. To keep going I installed FireFox (from Mozilla) in /home/user/firefox which works great now I've installed all the i386 stuff it wanted, I've got all my bookmarks, saved passwords etc BUT I can't get flash to work. I figured all I needed to do was put a link to libflashplayer.so in /home/user/firefox/plugins/ and we'd be good but when I go to a site with flash content FF crashes. I installed Leigh 123s X86-64 flash rpm and made a link to it as above and got the same result.

I have installed firefox to a user directory (version 3.6.10) /cache/app/firefox.
I have installed java jre1.6.0_21 to /cache/app/java/jre1.6.0_21
I have symlinked /cache/app/java/jre1.6.0_21/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so to /cache/app/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so
So, in theory, when I start firefox the plugin should be listed in about:config - wrong. I have lots of other plugins working just fine, but java is not listed anywhere.
I ran strace -F ./firefox >/tmp/output.txt 2>&1 (the -F is necessary as firefox plugins are now loaded in a forked process). Firefox clearly finds my plugin:
It clearly looks like the plugin is being found, opened, and the first 512 bytes read and possibly memory mapped. So why doesn't it appear in the list of plugins?
One clue could be that there's another older plugin lying in the default directories (and I can't change this, I don't have root, hence running firefox in user mode).
Though surely firefox is smart enough to pick the latest one and use that? Is there a way of turning debugging ON during firefox start-up so I can find a debug message that explains why the latest JRE 1.6 plugin is being passed over?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 minimal with Openbox; far from a standard install but nearly everything works the way it should.
The problem appears quite simple:
Firefox does not recognise installed plugins (i.e, Flash) when running as the standard user; if I run the command 'sudo firefox' however, Firefox loads in plugins just as it should.
I've checked about:plugins in both instances and this has confirmed what is stated above. The list is populated when running as the super user, and empty when running as standard.

In Windows, I was able to use IE as a user interface because I could code a WSF (Windows equivalent to shell script) to respond to events in IE.Now that I've moved to Linux/Firefox, I'd like to use Firefox in a similar way. Specifically, I would like to write a bash script to run lsdvd with XML output, use XSL to transform the XML for Firefox, then take an action (encode a selected track on the DVD) based on the user's selection. I would be happy if I could make Firefox write something somewhere that the script could read, but I suspect that security measures would prevent that.

Firefox seems to suddenly dislike one of the groups i belong too, whenever i try to access it I get the following message,
Database Error: INSERT command denied to user 'usingle_210259_1'@'linweb14.atlas.pipex.net' for table 'smf_log_online'

Is this a server error, or is it my system? I have tried using a different theme but I still get the same error.I'm using the gnome classic theme ATM.

I am running a remote login server where I have multiple users. I am using No Machine NX for the remote login software. I also used Ubuntu Tweak and did some editing in gconf-editor in order to lockdown the machine. In the end the user has some files on their desktop they can view and one panel with a logoff button. This system has been in place for about 2 years now and running pretty smoothly.
I am not sure if this is an NX problem or Gnome problem. I have just one user, all of a sudden, that has nothing on the desktop and no panel when they login. The system was set for each user to have their /home folder as their desktop folder. I am not sure where to start trouble shooting this. I have looked a quite at few of the gconf.xml fiels for the user, but do not see anything out of the ordinary (comparing to other user's gconf.xml files)

When I create a new desktop user(i.e. without administrative privileges), I am given the option of letting him have the ability to connect to wired/wireless networks or not. Should I let a normal user have this privilege? Are there any security issues if I let him connect to wireless networks?

After a total hangup while downloading a largeish jpg, my desktop doesnt show any icons and both monitors show the same. Other users have same problem. When I try to reactivate the two-monitor setting, I get the message: "The monitor configuration could not be saved. Error executing command as anther user. no authentication agent found" (or words to that effect - my messages are in german). the thing that puzzles me is that the correct desktop background is shown - so not all settings are lost. is this a common fault? or whewe are these configurations stored?

I work for a local community college, and we currently have web kiosks set up around the college. They have fairly old hardware and are currently running windows XP. However, with all the group policies and scripts required to lock them down, it can take 10+ minutes for the students to log in(we want authentication for someone to be able to use them).
Now, I have managed to get a few test computers to run fedora with openLDAP authentication and LTSP giving them a desktop with firefox. Now, the problem is that we don't want the user to be able to do anything but run firefox and, on some of them, print. I have been using gnome, gconf, and sabayon(not the distribution, the user profile tool) to attempt to lock down the desktop. However, anyone can just right click the gnome menu and add back in everything i disabled. While they wouldn't be able to do much harm, the point is that if they want to do work, we want them to go to our computer labs, instead of the kiosks. The kiosks are just for looking things up or getting on their e-mail.

I installed Linux Mint 9 a couple of days ago (from a live usb) and my 'Account type' was set as 'Custom'.
I had to change the 'Account type' to 'Administrator' so I could edit the 'Network Manager' configuration (the 'Apply' button in Network Manager was disabled until I changed to Administrator).
Is it ok to leave it as 'Administrator' or should I change it to 'Desktop user' until I need to change system settings again?
