Thanks. I see this as an improvement, but there are some issues. 1) LAN Ubuntu Firefox version gives no location. 2) LAN Mozilla Firefox downloaded from Mozilla gives no location. 3) LAN Chrome at times give no location (even reports a 404 in the positionError 2 text). When given it is not accurate as it is probably IP based. 4) WLAN Mozilla Firefox/Ubuntu Firefox/Chrome all works in all my few test cases.
So this time around, it may be a mistake on Mozilla parts, or as I suspect, the Google Geolocation service is not reliable at the moment. Or a combination. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1231273 Title: Firefox does not show google geo location map Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS (Kubuntu) Linux step3 3.2.0-53-generic #81-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 22 21:01:03 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0 Firefox 24.0 Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical 1-0 When browsing the URL https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-geolocation the map is not displayed as in other browsers on the same system.
