Description Jan Matejek 2008-05-05 19:42:46 UTC
after upgrading my system from 10.3 to 11.0 Beta 2, Firefox 3 is rather broken - the Back, Forward, Reload and Stop buttons are always disabled, the Links toolbar is on by default, but it's empty (and i can't add any bookmarks), i can't install any extensions.

Deleting ~/.mozilla did not help, this happens even with a clean profile.

other than that, it seems to browse webpages just fine, i'm filing this report from it.

(also, scrolling is extremely slow in firefox and thunderbird, but that might be related to the graphics driver (nv))

everything works fine when i do a clean install...

hmm, so a fresh profile doesn't help but a fresh openSUSE install fixes it while it's broken after an upgrade, correct?

If you still have the broken installation available, could you please give some further information:
rpm -qa | grep -i mozilla
rpm -V mozilla-xulrunner190 MozillaFirefox
any messages in Tools->Error console directly after starting up Firefox

works again after upgrade from beta2 to beta3, so i guess it's fixed
