Something is seriously funny going on here with FF 3.5.7 (Shiretoko).

I'm using it from the arch repos, but on visiting Google Help or
Orkut,
it says Browser not supported ?

And the supported browser list says FF 1.5+

Something is wrong with the arch build ?

There's nothing wrong with our firefox package, it's buggy browser
detection done by these websites. You might want to change the user
agent string through about:config to get Firefox in the name.

Websites with browser detection like this are plain stupid, you should
complain about it and advise them to check for a gecko engine version.


you can also use an add-ons like this:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59

or you could go into the Firefox config (URL: about:config) and change
the value of general.useragent.extra.firefox to Firefox/3.5.7


I changed it using the addon. I could also do that, but to be on the
safer side... I already had to install all my addons and themes due to
some similar thing. So not taking risk again :D


Eh. I cannot keep on switching the User Agent every time I start firefox. So about:config :D ;)
