I started with Firefox 10 today after updating some packages of my Kubuntu10.04. Before I used 3.6.? Since this change firefox often forgets my lastly used download folder. It presents one that I used some downlaodactions before, but had changed in the meantime, or it present the standard /home/user/download.

Changes were made to Firefox. A new preference will be added to Firefox 11 until then, I regret to say that you are probably stuck with this sort of behaviour.

Not by default, users will need to add it.

I don't see the new pref in Beta 11, Aurora 12, or Nightly 13 - needs to be added by the user.

Es hat doch bisher funktioniert. Es muss also in der Entwicklung daran gedreht worden sein und das mit einer hoffentlich sinnvollen Absicht; oder Änderungen an anderer Stelle haben Rückwirkungen. Das wäre ein mangelnder Test vor dem Release und wird nicht mit irgendwelchen neuen Einstellungen in Ordnung gebracht, vor allem nicht, wenn ich sie selbst auch noch ergänzen muss (in about.config?).

Da andere Benutzer sich ebenfalls über (andere) Fehler beklagen, werde ich dem nicht lange zuschauen. Wenn es nicht bald eine Lösung gibt und weniger fehlerhafte neue Versionen, war ich Firefox-User - was mir Leid täte.

Ansonsten ist das Problem für mich erst mal erledigt. Gibt es da eine Link, um den Thread so zu markieren? hartmut
