Some updates for Personas fails to work with Firefox on OpenSolaris in case someone else are also interested in this nice Mozilla labs project (over 1 million download already).
The bug has been filed in Mozilla community to track the problem: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=488650. The workaround is pretty simple: just update $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/*default/extensions/personas at christopher.beard/chrome.manifest to include the line below: skin personas classic/1.0 jar:chrome/personas.jar!/skin/linux/ appversion>=3.0 os=SunOS in the skin section should be fine. Hope this can be included in the next Personas release.
