Firefox Portable

Firefox 355

Submitted by davido on November 6, 2009 - 8:20am

Hi, I have just updated from 3014 to 355 and find that when I start firefox it will not initiate the network connection, it just gives me a 'cannot find server'and I have to separately make the network connection.

This does not happen with previous versions.

I realise its probably something trivial that I am missing but cannot see it.

Thanks for any help.

Can Firefox Portable Apps be used on Linux?

Submitted by lunar on November 2, 2009 - 2:42pm

Greetings All!

I'm a total newbie when it comes to using linux, usbs, and portable apps. So if I sound ignorant, please forgive me. I don't even know if I'm in the right forum!

Here's my dilemma:
1. I have a desktop with XP and I use Firefox as my browser.
2. I just bought an Asus EEEPC 1000 with linux (xandros).
3. I do not want to download XP on the netbook.

My questions are:
1. Will the firefox portable apps (on an usb pny 4gb) work with the netbook?
2. If not, why?
3. If so, how?

"The procedure entry point sqlite3_result_error_nonmem could not be located in dynamic link library sqlite3.dll."

Profile Manager in Launcher? Possible?

It just dawned on me, while the actual Firefox profile manager, I guess, is not portable (I don't see how it's not, but I'll take y'all's word), the launcher can make a portable variation. You could probably get away with making the GUI for it look like Mozilla's.

Here's how it works:

If you just have the folders App, Data, and Other, it works like normal.
