Re: Mobile Firefox Is Six Times Faster Than Nokia's Browser on the N810

Well... I can't really agree with that either. :) There's a boatload (http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Firefox_3_for_developers) of new things in Firefox 3, and there have been heavy...

Re: Mobile Firefox Is Six Times Faster Than Nokia's Browser on the N810

Well... I think you have to put that in context. "Mobile" usually means cell phones -- there's a billion-and-change of them in use, and nearly all of them have a crappy web browser (if any). The N810...

Re: Next Microb and features like cookie management?

To be clear: those links are to early builds of XULRunner and Mozilla's mobile browser project, which is still getting started. That effort is unrelated to Nokia's MicroB, although both use a lot of...

Re: Firefox 3.0 on Maemo -- working

Firefox 3 has *enormous* improvements in speed and memory usage. MicroB is currently using a Mozilla version from early last summer (iirc), and so it doesn't have many of these improvements. It would...

Re: Firefox 3.0 on Maemo -- working

This particular release isn't Firefox, it's XULRunner.

XULRunner (http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XULRunner) is basically the core Mozilla platform, which other apps can use to build on top...

Re: Electric Sheep........anyone think possible?

This would be fun to play with, but would be a huge resource / power hog (even assuming you disabled the client-side distributed rendering). The screensaver is basically a bunch of looped MPEG2...

Re: Mozilla-based Browser for the Nokia N800

Unfortunately, the announcement said that Microb does not include XUL, so Firefox extensions which add/modify the UI are not going to work. I don't see a port of the Extension Manager (yet?), so I'm...

Re: N800: Slow SSH connections?

The problem I was referring to happens on the *server* side. For example, after you connect the server might want to log a message like "connection from host.foo.com". But the reverse lookup on the...

Re: Nokia repairs (N800) - any advice?

Nuts. I just did the same thing. Did you have any luck getting Nokia to just send you a replacement stand?

Re: N800: Slow SSH connections?

Hmm, sometimes problems like this are DNS related... A server tries to map your IP address to a name, but doesn't get a result for a long time (or just times out and gives up).

You could sniff the...

Re: Faster, safer Internet with OpenDNS

If you're finding DNS to be the cause of a significant performance degradation, you probably have a crappy ISP. DNS is designed to be cached (by intermediate servers and/or the end host). A cleaner...

Re: Anyway to rename my internet radio stations?

I noticed the same thing, and couldn't find a way to change the displayed name. I wrote about it (http://blog.mozilla.com/dolske/2007/01/22/ceci-nest-pas-une-iphone/) as one of the quirky things that...
