Re: Add-Ons that won't update with SM 2.1
Interviewed by CNN on 16/06/2011 20:50, Stan told the world: I am not clear about what I need to do to get three Add-Ons to update. When I installed SM 2.1, six Add-Ons were updated. Three of them did not and in the Add-On Manager they are noted as:add-on name is incompatible with SeaMonkey 2.1 The three add-ons are: FxIF, Image Zoom, and StumbleUpon. Ideally, YOU wouldn't have to do anything. The add-on author would take care of releasing a new version of the add-on that would fix the issue. Unfortunately, some add-ons are no longer being maintained, or the author decided to stop supporting Seamonkey. So there's no official update to the add-on to update to. What you MIGHT do is to deceive Seamonkey into accepting an add-on that has not been checked by the author as compatible with Seamonkey 2.1. In many (but not all) cases, the add-on will run fine. There are various ways to do that deceiving: Method 1. Disable compatibility checking. This involves changing a setting. I don't have the reference handy, but it has been mentioned in this forum. I dislike this method because compatibility checking is in principle a good idea, and it's all too easy to disable it and forget to enable it later. More details here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility Method 2. Use the Add-On Compatibility Reporter add-on. This has a similar effect as method 1, but it's easier to do (no need to create new preferences in about:config and such), and adds a couple other useful things like a way to report if the extension works or not with a particular browser version. Method 3. Direct edit. This involves editing the install.rdf file in the broken extension folder, to change the maxversion value to 2.1, 2.1.x, 2.x or something similar, in order to allow it to work. A bit more technically involved, but limits the changes to the particular add-on that's not working, instead of disabling compatibility check. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Re: Seamonkey 2.1 -- worst version ever
Interviewed by CNN on 16/06/2011 22:44, Rufus told the world: That's simply not true. I have the Atomic browser installed on my iPad and like it...and there are others. Atomic is not a full browser either. It does not include its own rendering engine, but uses the iOS Safari one. Essentially, it's Safari with a different skin. Let me repeat: Apple does not allow another rendering engine on iOS. You won't get a Gecko browser, like Firefox or Seamonkey, there. You won't even get a different spin of Webkit, such as Google Chrome. Developing any sort of application which overlaps in functionality Apple's official ones is chancy at best. You have no idea if they will allow the app to be distributed, or if your investment is going to go down the drain. ...as in any business venture. Failure to make a profit because you can't convince people to pay for your product is a normal risk.

Re: High CPU usage
David Wilkinson wrote: Using SM2 on Windows 7 x64 (and other Windows machines). I have found many discussions of high CPU usage in FireFox and SeaMonkey, but none of the suggestions have ever helped in my situation. The symptom is that SeaMonkey freezes for a few seconds, most noticeably when scrolling a document or clicking a menu (when I expect instant response). The problem is less severe on my new quad core machine (Windows 7 x64) and worse on an XP virtual machine. Although I ws not able to conclude unambiguously that mailnews was the culprit here, I have just cleaned up and compacted my IMAP Inbox's and SeaMonkey seems to be running much better.

That's very good news, because it is great for doing simple pages which work for the simple people who still run IR6 or (shudder) Mosaic.

There are a number of alternative browsers for iPad, the most popular (I can see why) being the Atomic browser - somewhat SM-like, and far more feature-rich than Safari on iOS. None of them is a browser by itself. Apple does NOT allow ANY software in their store that competes with some software they are providing with the device theirselves. All those alternatives are just Safari with a different costume, i.e. some other user interface around it. ...I dunno. I guess we're arguing coding semantics. Atomic is certainly a browser to me, because it browses. And it's functionality and feature set are vastly different from Safari, it certainly competes with Safari, I got it from the Apple App Store for 99 cents...and there are others there. So I don't buy your premise one bit as stated. Yes, it's platform-specific and uses some platform specific code, but so do a whole host of other software. I don't have an issue with that from any standpoint. But again, the way iOS works I find *far* less utility in the suite concept when working on my iPad Well, I'm reasonably sure that communication methods that don't run inside the browser will be mostly dying out in the next years. But then, that's just my opinion. Robert Kaiser The iPad is certainly the first device I've bought in a very long time that is actually changing the way I work. I'm sort of dubious about the approaching Lion OS...I'm not sure I'm going to like some of it's more iOS-like implementations on my desktop, but then again I'm not sure I won't. Everything changes...what matters more is still being able to make choices which suits the individual user. More products, more better. You are aware the only way to get Lion is have a Very good Internet Connection Perhaps FOIS or better. It will not be sold on DVD. It will only cost $29.00.

On the menu bar, select [Edit Preferences]. On the Preferences window, select [Appearance Fonts]. On the Fonts pane, set the sizes for Proportional and for Monospace to a larger value. Also set the Minimum font size larger. This will constrain all fonts from becoming smaller than the specified sizes. Install the PrefBar extension. Enable the Font+ and Font- buttons. Use the Font+ to make text larger. On the SeaMonkey address area (URI bar), enter about:config. Search for browser.zoom.siteSpecific and make sure this preference variable is true. The Font+ and Font- buttons allow you to control zooming while the preference variable will cause zooming to be remembered for the current domain, even after SeaMonkey is terminated and then relaunched and after you visit other domains. -- David E.
