To work properly you will need an uptodate conkeror version. The package in Debian Unstable or Ubuntu Natty as well as the Nightly Builds should suffice. There were quite some Xulrunner 2.0 fixes in the last dozen commits or so. > ps.

The newest conkeror Debian/Ubuntu packages (as mentioned above) will then prefer Xulrunner 2.0.
