Description

We currently have no good UI for: a) setting this sort of a preference b) letting the user know why they'd want to pick one or the other Moreover, I don't think the scripts have been tested correctly for running, say, both 32 and 64-bit browser instances at the same time (presumably, they'd trip over the lock file.) At this point, I think this is WONTFIX. I was thinking command line, not starting it from menus or so, but I can see the point. As for the scripts, if you have a running firefox, running any other firefox will just get the running one to open the requested URL, due to communitation (I suppose) through the X server. So, yes, it's confusing. But if we could just add it to the x86_64 distro, even if not installed by default, it would make things much simpler on the update side. |
