[Bug 279112] Re: Linux Firefox 3.03 wont work with hotmail
Hello! I had this problem with hotmail and after searching some forums I was able to fix it. + Hotmail recognizes Firefox now. +++ You have to do the following in Firefox. In the adress bar type: About:config Accept the terms. Then search for: USERAGENT In the list that appears search for: general.useragent.vendor predetermined Chain Ubuntu Change the word: Ubuntu for: Firefox It should read: general.useragent.vendor predetermined Chain Firefox and to save you close the tab then in file you select QUIT This way the change is saved in Firefox 3.0.3 And works well under Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10 To verify that the change worked I rebooted the computer several times and no problem what so ever, hopefully it will work for anyone with this little problem. In any case thank you for your time!! Hope that you have a great weekend!!!

[Bug 279112] Re: Linux Firefox 3.03 wont work with hotmail
I had noticed a difference in using Ubuntu Live CD and 8.04 install. With the Live CD user, Firefox included 3.0b; Hotmail full version works fine and includes the 'check-mail' button but not so with the install.

Confirmed as well.

[Bug 279112] Re: Linux Firefox 3.03 wont work with hotmail
This appears to be a user agent sniffing issue. It works correctly on Firefox 3 for Windows, and works on Firefox 3 for Linux if you use the user agent switcher, and tell it you're using Firefox 3 for Win32. Firefox is quite capable of displaying the full version of the Hotmail page, but Hotmail refuses to use the full version if it detects you're running Linux. This is a Hotmail bug, not a Firefox one, althoughh Firefox users can work around it by using the user agent switcher add-on for Firefox. -- Linux Firefox 3.03 wont work with hotmail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279112 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

i confirm the behavior on intrepid with firefox-3.0 (3.0.3+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu1). however i am unsure that this is a bug in firefox. it could be a bug in how hotmail checks for valid browser. changing status to confirmed. -- Linux Firefox 3.03 wont work with hotmail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279112 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

No, at home I have a router witch directly connects to internet, at school there is no proxy either :) On Mon, Oct 6, 2008 at 5:53 PM, Arnaud Blouin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Are you behind a proxy of something like that?
