[desktop-discuss] HELP: test Firefox 3.1b3 on OpenSolaris

[Diego Righi]

I've just installed firefox 3.1b3 on opensolaris, and I noticed 2 things:
1) after bunzipping the package data stream, you don't have the 3 package files 
ready to install, you have to transform the stream to actual packages with this 
command:
pkgtrans firefox-3.1b3.en-US.opensolaris-i386-pkg ./ SUNWfirefox 
SUNWfirefox-devel SUNWfirefox-bookmark
2) firefox upon startup told me that the "Xesam" search extension was disabled 
because there was no compatible version of it for firefox 3.1b3
3) first test I've redone was to go on images.google.com, search a random 
keyword, right click on an image, open in new tab: bingo! now it works! So I 
suppose this wasn't a firefox 3.1b2 problem, it was that damn Xesam search 
extension that I could not remove or uninstall, thank god it's now disabled >:P
