Anyway, step by step instructions for fully updated 8.04.1 as of this
date:
1. create file mozilla.txt with the following contents
//
pref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://www.launchpad.net");
2. Convert mozilla.txt to mozilla.cfg by using
http://www.alain.knaff.lu/~aknaff/howto/MozillaCustomization/cgi/byteshf.cgi
3. Close all firefox instances
4. Edit/Create /etc/xulrunner-1.9/system-grepref.js and add
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
5. Copy the file mozilla.cfg to /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.3
6. Start firefox, the default homepage should now be
http://www.launchpad.net
