Firefox Tweaks on Linux

There are some minor things that bother me with the default Firefox install on Ubuntu. An example of this is when you single-click in the address bar. Instead of selecting the whole URL, the cursor goes to the end of the line. I hate this. Had to be fixed.

Google led me to this post at Scatterism that provided the fix for this and a few other things. Be sure to check out comment #4 for the fix to using the Backspace button as Back in browsing history.

    i’m annoyed that firefox automatically installs Live Bookmarks which initiates updates every 5 minutes and there doesn’t seem to be a way to stop this.
