Mozilla Firefox 3.0 RC1


Recommended Posts

Hey, at least you are not on ubuntu ehhe .Firefox on ubuntu looks really ugly when compared to how it looks on vista.

IMO:

FF3 OS X > FF3 win xp > ff3 vista > __netscape 1.0 __ > Ff3 on ubuntu.

I think they took the 'native' look way too far.

I agree, they blew it on Ubuntu.

Can anyone get glasser with explorer bar to work on RC1

This is the official beta release of the Glasser extension, designed to work with Firefox 3 RC1. The creater, 6XGate, also describes how to use the 'Windows Explorer-like' themed bookmarks toolbar with this extension and provides the download link:

There is only a beta version now and this is an update to the Glasser you would have used on Firefox 3 Beta 5, as that was alpha.

Hope that helps? :)

I like firefox in linux the best of all, because it is really native. If you have a good theme and icons it looks great, I personally think it looks great even with default themes like clearlooks or human and tango icons. I love. programs that integrate perfectly with the look of the os.

imo

Firefox linux > Firefox Vista (With glasser) >OSX >XP

Seems to be working flawlessly, only had to reinstall my flash player since that wasn't recognized anymore, so I upgraded to flash player 10 and all is working great even my main extensions were updated and work as I would like them to :)

Keeper for me so far, even uninstalled FF2.

I've just updated, and the only plugins that didn't work for me is PicLens and AIO Sidebar. The rest works smoothly and I'm pleased that there is now a Clear List button in Downloads.

Flash Player doesn't work for me, Neowin keeps reporting it needs additional plugins, I install them and restart the browser and it says the exact same thing.

I tried downloading the Installer, same thing - Says It's installed but doesn't work.

I had the same problem as well. The Adobe installer worked though, so I'm unsure what your problem is really.

Sorry to hijack the thread but i did search for Firefox 3.0 using Neowin search and now everything on Neowin to do with Firefox is highlighted in bright yellow AND also in IE7 which i don't use, so i'm guessing this is a Neowin setting.

How do i remove the highlighting please? As its fine on my laptop but not the desktop pc.

I'm using windows Vista if that helps.

I've noticed one problem so far and that is my facebook chat app is broken most of the time (it thinks it's disabled on every page, but only sometimes :s)

Anyone else experience this?

Yeah your not the only one, seems to happen a lot, if I click on another page it works then breaks again. Was fine in beta 5.

Can someone point me towards 3b5? I'm trying to find a download link and they all lead to RC1. Prior betas would install separately but that didn't happen this time around. Roboform isn't working for me

What OS?

I can give you my link.

If you want OSX that is.

If not, give me a sec and I'll give you my windows installation (from my USB).

    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
