Meet Firefox 4.0.1


Recommended Posts

Panorama is great indeed, also combine with App tab you get a fast group switcher ! For example i have a group called default with Neowin as an app tab and a couple of other websites i usually check, and then i have another group called dev where i have my current project as an app tab and a couple of others. As the the app tabs usually stays whatever the group you are in simply clicking on one of them switches automatically of groups. Awesome ! :)

The problem I have when enabling D2D is that the pages load, but sometimes the rendered page isn't shown, just a blank one. If I minimize and then maximize Firefox, the page appears.

Running Vista with a DirectX 10 card.

Do you have a DirectX 9 card or a DirectX 10 card? They plan to only enable it by default if you have a DX10 card or higher.

Edit: Actually, I think they've done that, so it's not just "the plan" any more.

Anyone hate that Tab Groups/Candy does not work well with Aero Peek. Say you have 6 tabs in 3 groups. And have one group of 2 showing, the aero peek tab swap shows ALL tabs open currently, and when hovering to preview shows them as if they are all in the same group. Pretty annoying.

I have proxy issues with Firefox 4.0 beta 4 build. My machine is use ISA Firewall client.

In previous build (4.0 beta 3 or older), I can select "Use system proxy settings" or "Auto-detect proxy settings for this network", and both of them working fine. Now with 4.0b4, none of them are working. I need to "Manual proxy settings" and enter my ISA proxy server address there to make it work.

Anyone else saw this?

install Sync Firefox, and delete you profile, that is because beta4 is install with old profile.

Delete profile? What i need to delete my Firefox profile to fix this bug?

All sorted now, it was the add on 'Download Status bar' causing the issue and disabling this has fixed it.

D2D working fantastically here, I love this thing.

Please forgive my lack of knowledge and the lack of time I have for research... what is D2D and what will it provide me with in terms of 'nicety'? :)
