Yes, the current firefox directory layout is a bit cluttered up. Anyway, step by step instructions for fully updated 8.04.1 as of this date:
1. create file mozilla.txt with the following contents // pref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://www.launchpad.net"); 2. Convert mozilla.txt to mozilla.cfg by using http://www.alain.knaff.lu/~aknaff/howto/MozillaCustomization/cgi/byteshf.cgi 3. Close all firefox instances 4. Edit/Create /etc/xulrunner-1.9/system-grepref.js and add pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg"); 5. Copy the file mozilla.cfg to /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.3 6. Start firefox, the default homepage should now be http://www.launchpad.net ** Attachment added: "Working mozilla.cfg" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18100995/mozilla.cfg -- systemwide default startup homepage ignored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19033 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
