I have a new annoying problem. I've made a fresh install of Minefield but for some reason I get the tab scroll buttons when starting the browser and I can't get rid of them. Any ideas of how do disable them ?

tab mix plus?

I want the Firefox 4 theme to show up in the nightlies already.

Me too! yes.gif

Most of the theme has already landed, they're now working on the small stuff (themeing doorhangers, changing sizes, etc.)

Do not think it will be anywhere near the mockups, much seems to be very much simplified & stripped, unfortunately...no.gif

Btw; Does anyone know what kind of wallpaper it is on the mockups here, and where to get it in that case?

Cheers wink.gif

It is pretty much like the mockups, there's still small fixes coming as well (like the curves on the tabs, and the site identity box (although I think that's been scaled back slightly, it landed a few weeks ago but bounced))

From something as simple as the gradient on the menu button, to the margin on that same button, the font effects, the colors, the elements placements.

It's nowhere like the mockups.

The gradient on the Firefox button was like that, but was updated to match the other caption buttons, the margins are still being changed, the font is a result of Photoshop so it'll never match, the colours are the same from what I can tell, and button placement is the same (apart from the lack of a home tab, which still isn't finished yet)

I must change something in about config to enable them or they are enabled by default on latest nightly ?

It's preffed off at the moment, but you can change a setting in about:config to enable them.

OpenGL layers are now turned on by default for OS X as well, makes scrolling and scaling (for <canvas> and <video>) much faster.

1. Install new Nightly

2. Delete your profile, except for Bookmarks and password databases.

3. Start firefox.

4. The setting is within the about:config, just find it and toggle it.

5. Restart

Don't have that line :cry:

And will it still work when I have enabled the rest the old way? I still run with MOZ_ACCELERATED = 11

Direct3D layers have been enabled by default for a month or so, you don't need the MOZ_ACCELERATED environment variable any more.

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.

      I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
