    Ubgraded = 2 Firefox issues...

    I just updated from Karmic 9.10 to Lucid 10.04 using the online upgrade option. So far everything is working great. The only issues I am having seem to involve Firefox.

    When I visit Youtube I get the message "Your browser is no longer supported. Please upgrade to a modern browser." I am running 3.6 "Canonical" so it is "modern". I am able to watch videos after I close the message. It's just an annoyance to get this message every time I view a video.

    Next, is on some websites (like this one) it will not supply my login info. But on a few sites (like eBay) it does supply my login info. Not sure why some sites work while others don't. The info is there when I look under my saved passwords....

    Any suggestions appreciated!

    I don't run Ubuntu so can't test it or say for sure that this will work but you might be able to enter about:config into the browser location bar, enter useragent into the filter, then change the useragent to Firefox.

    Thanks for the help. Which one should say Firefox? One entry does already...

    I'm not sure if this is a NEW symptom or if this is something that's just sporadic, but when I use the back button I have to click it at least twice quickly to go back a page....
    Thanks
