This is just a guess, but the problem could to be that the Debian package sets the properties _FIREFOX_VERSION, _FIREFOX_USER, etc. on the browser windows, while the official package sets _MOZILLA_VERSION and _MOZILLA_USER as does Mozilla, and I think old Galeon as well. The gnome-moz-binary contains these two later strings. New Galeon sets none of these at all and is broken as well (in that and many other aspects). Under WM:s supporting non-standard Gnome hints such as _WIN_CLIENT_LIST, I suspect gnome-moz-remote uses another method to locate the window. Under TWM gnome-moz-remote is exactly as broken as under Ion, and the binary on my system does not contain the name for the equivalent and more standard NetWM client list property. So, perhaps a bug report should be filed against the Debian Firefox package? As for Galeon, well, 1.2 was much better than even Firefox, but since then it has been such a downhill thanks to Gnome2 that I wonder if anyone uses it anymore with Ion? (Or at all?) -- Tuomo
