Again, you rock! Your work is very much appreciated...

Intel Mac Firefoxy 1.5.0.5 version DMG fails to mount. Reason - Codec Overrun. Any ideas?

The Aqua widgets version mounts just fine.

mmmmmm clammmbake
Thanks greatly for the G5 version.
I'll pass on the leather pants...stupid hot here in Montreal :)

Intel Mac Firefoxy 1.5.0.5 version DMG fails to mount for me as well. Same Reason - Codec Overrun. Is everyone having this problem?

I'm having the same issue as JIJOE. Cleared my cache and downloaded the Intel Mac Firefoxy 1.5.0.5 DMG three times and each time it fails to mount with the Codec Overrun error. Looks like the file got corrupted.

The aqua version mounts fine for me too.

Thanks for the great work. I love these builds.

Any chance you could build/post optimized Thunderbird releases?

Thanks

don't have an intel machine - the G5 and G4 versions work fine :-)

thanks!

firefox-intel-1505.dmg mounted and installed and ran fine just now. MacBook Pro 2.16 GHz.

Why are the options in a dropdown box now grey??

Hmm...not sure what changed. But Mac Intel Firefoxy DMG seems to work for me now. I could've sworn it didn't work today AM. Anyway, works for me now. Yay!!

I neglected to mention - I'm using the Aqua-form-widgets build.

Just dropping by to say thanks again. Really appreciate these optimized versions. :)

Unfortunately, with 1.505 for G4 (with Aqua forms, calling URLs from bookmarks doesn't work, no matter whether selecting a URL from Bookmark menu or using a bookmark 'keyword' shortcut... anybody else experience this?

Oh fantastic! I've been waiting for this! You're the best, man!

Just curious - How come you don't offer G5-optimized Firefox 1.5.0.5 with Firefoxy form widgets?

Nice job Neil! I too am in search of an optimized thunderbird build.

nessa - i think it was mentioned in an earlier post that neil no longer has a G5 so the build here was contributed by one of his friends, who's the one who doesn't want to make firefoxy-widget versions.

(neil, you might want to expand your FAQ to include this, and not just the "Deer Park 'cos I don't have the copyright" thing? actually ... I don't want to sound like a broken record but I think if you did a grep on the source and changed the menu item to say it's "Deer Park" and not "firefox" it would help a bit, make it more clear that it's "deer park", not some half-deer-half-fox thingie. In any case I promise I shall mention this no more :-).

i'm actually wondering if the 1.5.0.6 "update" is so critical. Does the windows media problem even affect the Mac versions? flip4mac seems to work ok for me.

Thanks for the build, it runs way better on my old G4!

Great googly-moogly, are those Mozilla folks deliberately messing with you, Neil? Will they start releasing new Firefox updates every other day? As for the update server you mentioned, I presume that this would enable your legions of grateful Deer Park fans to merely select the Check for Updates option in the Help menu. Considering how this would benefit both you and us, I heartily encourage and applaud your efforts in that direction. (BTW, for further African music enjoyment, do check out Bembeya Jazz from Guinea, and Jaojoby from Madagascar.)

They just put out Firefox 1.5.0.6 ... are you going to release an optimized version? I see no problems with the optimized 1.5.0.5 but I'm just wondering.

Any plans on creating a Firefox 2.0 beta custom build for the Intel platform (Macbook Pro)???

PS: How do you create these builds? Can a non coder do it on their computer easily?

Thanks.

Thanks..

But... When will are available 1.5.0.6 versión?

I have G4 CPU's

Sorry for my impatience and very thank you for your job.

Bye.

You can get the Firefoxy widgets for the G5 build of Firefox.

Just use this patcher:
http://www.amake.us/software/firefoxy/

It was the first result on a Google search for "Firefoxy".   :¬)

Same problem/question as Chris, why are the options in a dropdown box now grey? It doesn't look right. I'm using the G4 optimized Aqua-form-widgets build.

Thanks for that link, Raptor!

Thanks so much for these G4-optimized versions! I've been using them since your first, and normally they've worked really, really well.

This update's been hanging a lot on my G4 Powerbook, though. I haven't been home to try it on my Mac Mini. Any suggestions?

Is it 29.08.06 already?!?!?!?!

Thanks, Neil!

(BTW, your entry above says: "Updated 29.08.06".)

Thanks !

Yah! I did not dowload the .5 version because I knew I would just need to view some dumb WMV if I did. Thank's for all the updates!

Awesome job! Thanks so much! Been running the G4 version in my iBook for since 1.5.0.4 and the difference in speed is definitely noticible.

Previously I'd been using Camino but I really missed some of the features of Firefox. I hated how the "official" Firefox release felt sluggish though. This works much better!

Out of curiosity, is there a post somewhere stating how to compile this if I'd want to myself? No need for links. If someone says it's there I can go hunt for it.

Thanks so much once again!

Relieved to see that with 1.50*6* for G4 (with Aqua forms), calling URLs using a bookmark ‘keyword’ shortcut is back working... TNX!

Anyone else having problems with scrolling up a long page? When ever it do that on my powerbook g4 firefox and dearpark both scramble the images and text and I need to reload the page to see everything. Safari doesn't have this issue. BTW love the releases for my MacBook Pro! Thanks for your time and effort!

Can't wait for you to build 1.5.0.7 optimized for intel !!! I've been using the Firefoxy version and loving it.

Am using 1.5.0.2 build and seem to have a memory leak. Everytime I use this Firefox version my computer seems to over heat and the fan starts running at high speed. Anyone else seen a problem like this? Does not happen with normal programs or OEM Safari.

Any updates for Deer park?

As for my two cents, I'd like to see a G5 optimized Thunderbird too.
