Anyone else notice problems with Print Preview, like switching from Portrait to Landscape and visa-versa?

There is one thing that interests me a lot – how to the devs upload files in bugzilla or any other place if all ff1.0+ builds crashes on file uploads?
August 27th, 2005 at 1:32 am
There are about a hundred blocking bugs. I’m not going to list them all in each Burning Edge post ;)
August 27th, 2005 at 1:32 am
CooLynX, I haven’t encountered such a crash.
August 27th, 2005 at 2:51 am
Hmm, strange. Looks like I have to remake my profile again – it does not crash with clean profile. ;)
August 27th, 2005 at 8:32 am
From August 23 Jesse no longer mentions what’s going on in trunk. I wonder if mentioned branch bug fixes are also in trunk.
August 27th, 2005 at 4:25 pm
CooLynX, if you can figure out what in your profile caused the crash, please file a bug report.
August 27th, 2005 at 4:30 pm
Almost all branch fixes also go into the trunk. The trunk also gets fixes that the branch doesn’t get, of course.
One exception was that FeedView was removed from the branch, but remains on the trunk so that it can be made to not suck for Firefox 2.0.

CooLynx, are you using the Sessionsaver extension. I had the same problem as you and removing that extension solved it.
August 28th, 2005 at 7:15 am
Jan Söderback, yes I am using Session saver and had a guess that it is causing me a problems but did not have a chance to test it yet.

What are the updates being offered for nighlies via the built-in update feature? The “more info” link provided doesn’t go anywhere.
August 28th, 2005 at 9:44 pm
amake, they should be new nightlies. For Gecko 1.8 branch builds, it should update you to the newest Gecko 1.8 branch build, and similarly for trunk builds.
August 28th, 2005 at 10:54 pm
Now I can confirm, that upload problems was caused by Session saver. :(
Jan Söderback, do you have an alternative for it?
