Ubuntu :: Automatically Restart Firefox If Closed?
Apr 7, 2010For a kiosk scenario, I run this script to close & restart Firefox when the screensaver is activated (the monitor also goes to sleep).I want to run a loop that, if Firefox is closed, it will automatically re-open. Is there a way to use dbus-monitor to accomplish this?Quote:

Notice how LQ is pinned as an App Tab, just like the case with Chrome and Chromium? Notice also how the tabs are placed above the address bar, just like Chrome and Chromium?
Just why was this done and for what purpose? I'm posting this here because this screenshot was taken on Ubuntu and I'm using Ubuntu. I also tested Firefox 4 on Ubuntu before and didn't have this realignment of widgets.
Fedora :: Way To Automatically Clear Out Settings / When Browser Is Closed Like Firefox
Jan 23, 2010It seems there is a problem with Chromium with not clearing out some cache such that if you go from one site with a css file to another site with a similar named css file, the old css file remains - go to options and clear out all browser stuff and everything is okay.is there a way to automatically clear out settings when the browser is closed like the Firefox option to do this ?

Oct 11, 2010I'm having a problem getting the website [URL]... to display and function properly on 10.10.

Does anybody know what the issue might be?

Ubuntu :: Firefox & Chromium Crashing With Flash?
Jul 16, 2011After updating to Natty Narwhal, Chromium began to occasionally crash, with the screen going black except for the mouse,which would freeze seconds later. Any sound playing will loop the last second or so, and no keyboard commands have any effect. As far as I can tell only a hard restart works.
The exact same thing happens with Firefox as well, except that Firefox freezes with the screen image, not blackness.
It is not consistent, but has been getting more frequent, and I have noticed a pattern of the crashes being associated with paying Flash video, and is almost certain with such.
I have tried updating Flash, Chromium, and running the Update manager roughly daily for a while now.
I can follow instructions well and usually actually understand what you're talking about.
Ubuntu Servers :: Firefox Can't Connect To Localhost But Chromium Can
Jul 28, 2010After spending what seems like an eternity trying to learn how to host a couple of webpages on my laptop for no better reason than to practice creating them without paying for a server. .for the time being, I kept getting the usual errors (stuff I have seen lots of tutorials on) and this time kept getting

Just by random chance I happened to open up Chromium for one of my attempts and low and behold, I get the much awaited

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: A Timed Download Manager For Chromium Or Firefox ?
Dec 22, 2010Does anyone know of any download manager that allows you to time your downloads to start off at certain times / hours et cetera? I currently use DownThemAll! as an extension in my Firefox, but I don't think that has such a capability. I would prefer a browser extension, but if there's an application that would do I'd be thankful if you could name it.
I need this so that I time my downloads at certain hours and have them run automatically, due to the fact that my ISP allows some uncharged hours at night which I basically never made use of (but now I have to, as my free data download limit is close to being used up).

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Can't Get Streaming Working In Chromium/Firefox In Karmic?

Ubuntu :: Chromium And Firefox Crashing Nautilus - Freezing System
Nov 9, 2010I've got a fun one for you. What makes absolutely any attempt to view a flash video crash Ubuntu 10.10, both in firefox and chromium? Lately, firefox began doing this. I switch to chromium, same thing. Also, the system completely locks up after about 30 minutes online if I can get the thing to work at all. When this happens, the rounded edges of all windows disappear, the menus become unresponsive, and any attempt to open the system monitor to end the offending process results in an "Unable to fork new process, system resource unvailable" something like that.
My entire online routine goes like this: open terminal, su to admin account to enable ufw (which will not run at boot no matter what I try), su to normal, limited account, open web browser, things explode (or work for 15 minutes before freezing completely.)

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Can't Select Text In Forms In Firefox
Jul 21, 2010I think it started after the last Firefox update - I can't select text in forms on any page - not even here, while I'm writing this. When I double click, the selection appears for a fraction of a second, and vanishes instantly. Neither can I select text by dragging, the same happens. I can still select everything with ctrl+A, but I can't select single words or sentences. It's driving me nuts. I've actually switched to Chrome because of this, but I'm missing a lot of Firefox's functionality there, so I'd rather stay with Mozilla.
View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Chromium - Firefox Wouid Readily Open Pdf Files Within The Browser Window Itself
Aug 8, 2010After finding firefox too slow, i recently shifted full time to chromium. and now i know why it has such a fan following ! its seriously fast, especially as compared to firefox - which at least in my case would appear to have got bogged down because of numerous add-ons etc.
However, there are 2 things that disturb the basic functional of chromium.
- Whenever i click on the browser icon, the window that opens up is never in "maximized" size. so every time i need to double click on the title border to maximize the window. is there some way in which the browser window will open in maximized mode the first time i click the icon ?
- Firefox wouid readily open pdf files within the browser window itself. however, chromium asks me to first save the file at some location, and then only can i open it !

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Chromium Application Shortcuts In Unity - Not Including Most Of Chromium's Toolbars
May 2, 2011I often use the option in Chromium to create 'application shortcuts'. These are instances of Chromium that make a website look more like an app by not including most of Chromium's toolbars. I use it for gmail and google docs and spreadsheets and calendar. In 11.04 I have set up Desktop launchers and copied them across to the Launcher (what an odd way to add something to the launcher, why no right-click 'add launcher' option?)
The problem is that the launcher thinks all these apps are chromium (which they are really, but I would like them to be seen as separate apps). If I minimize my gmail window, a little triangle appears next to the chromium icon, not the gmail icon. To get the window back, I have to click on the Chromium icon. Clicking on the gmail icon launches a new instance of it (also tied to the Chromium icon).
Ubuntu Networking :: Run Chromium With -enable-gpu-rendering Flag Chromium's Display Looks Like It's Shattered Into Thousands Of Pieces
Dec 2, 2010if i run chromium with --enable-gpu-rendering flag chromium's display looks like it's shattered into thousands of pieces and I can't understand a thing. This doesn't happens if I have a previous instance of chromium opened in the usual way, without any flag. In this case if I open another chromium window with the --enable-gpu-rendering flag it's display looks ok, but I can't figure out what's the problem and how could this be fixed if there's solution for it of course.

Oct 22, 2010I made a shortcut with chromium browser to listen.grooveshark.com. This is great as it's almost like the grooveshark VIP desktop application like this. However AWN dock groups it with other chromium windows like this:Kuvakaappaus.jpg
Is it possible to force AWN to group this specific chromium window under the Grooveshark launcher that I have in the dock? Turning off grouping does not solve this either, as it just shows grooveshark as another chromium window.
Ubuntu :: Cannot Uninstall Firefox Nor Can Uninstall Chromium

Jan 16, 2010My netbook does not hibernate when lid is closed. Sometimes it does but usually not. At first I was thinking it was getting confused after recharging, thinking it was still in AC mode. I suppose it could be some process running in the background but don't know how to identify which one would cause that. If that were the case, would I be able to manually go to Hibernate?
I've checked my preferences and "On Battery Power" "When Lid is closed" is set to Hibernate.

Ubuntu :: Transmission Says All Ports Are Closed?
Jul 16, 2010I've installed many different versions on Ubuntu, many different times and I've never had a problem with transmission... untill now. I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 ( I was already previously using 10.04) and I updated and set up transmission but when I tested the port it said it was closed. This has never happened before.
I tried changing the port about 15 times but it says they are all closed. So I tried opening one..
Code:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 50970 -j ACCEPT
... but still nothing. I have no firewall running and everything else works fine. Transmission was working before, on the same ports, same version of transmission, and same version of Ubuntu. Nothing has changed.
