The search app just dies once its made the circuit of a page. Open a new page and the search thing has to have its throat cut and be born again to start working again. Press / and start typing your search string. It's been there since 3.4 (I think) and is much faster than opening a dialog. It also loops back to the start when it reaches the end of the page. I agree that being able press F3 and use the same search string after changing pages would be useful. -- Neil Bothwick God is real, unless specifically declared integer. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

You may be able to do the emerges in parallel, just make sure they aren't going to try and install the same package. Sure, they'll both take longer, but if it's major emerging you might get to use gtk-engines-qt faster that way instead of waiting for the one you've already got going to finish.

I seem to recall having a chrome* something file that set some of that stuff once upon a time. Something I'd cadged off the net. Maybe it was for plain mozilla. Firefox has retain some of this. I believe it's userchrome.js or something now. With a simple 'equery f mozilla-firefox | grep -i chrome' I found some files that might be interesting under /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox. Those are probably global settings, there are also some chrome in my user directory that you can find with 'find ~/.mozilla -iname *chrome*' Anyway I don't see those kind of files under ~/.moziila anymore.

Open a new page and the search thing has to have its throat cut and be born again to start working again. Great little time waster. But on the other hand its the only search app (on a browser) I've seen that allows regex. As luck would have it, a web page is one place I rarely need or want a regex but I'd give up a child to have regex on google. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
