[SOLVED] Getting ready for Mandriva 2009.1

[Max2009]

So, I've been looking forward to this for a long time. I started out with 2009 KDE 4.1 but it was too buggy, so I'm now running 2008.1 KDE 3.5
Anyway, 2009.1 is coming out (hopefully) on Wednesday, and I need to backup stuff.
How do I backup the saved passwords and stuff from Firefox? I know where the bookmarks backups are, but where are the passwords stored? When I install again, I'll never be able to remember all my passwords...

Just copy .mozilla folder in your /home/user_id folder. Replace it with .mozilla folder of new Firefox.

You will have same Extensions, Passwords, Themes and Bookmarks in new Firefox.

I backup .mozilla folder at regular intervals.

You can also use the xmarks plugin.

Just copy .mozilla folder in your /home/user_id folder. Replace it with .mozilla folder of new Firefox.

I thought of that, but won't it create version conflicts or something? Or is it finally time for me to stop thinking like a Windows user...

[devils casper]

It won't create any version conflict. I am doing that since 2.x.

Using new .mozilla folder in 3.x release onwards though.

Great! Thanks!
