Comment #68 on issue 975 by ronaldteune: FF 3.0.15 said to be incompatible with Gears 0.5.33.0
http://code.google.com/p/gears/issues/detail?id=975

The gears-linux-opt.xpi mentioned in comment 21 is already spoilt (64 bit). The gears-linix-new.xpi from that post does not work in firefox 3.6. I've been playing around a bit, added the fix from comment 48, then decided to download firefox 3.5
using this:
http://www.dannybuntu.com/2009/06/day-1044b-howto-install-firefox-35rc3.html (but not by using wget, just using the browser). Then I installed it, checked the version using Help -> about and... now I'm happily using Firefox 3.5 and gears.google.com
tells me:

Gears is installed
Current version:
0.5.32.0;official;opt;linux;firefox

Probably I'll be having some safety leaks (anyone knowing some serious ones?) and
probably I'm missing out some functions... but I'll live with that.
