I installed ubuntu 9.10 on one of my laptops with GNOME desktop environment, but unfortunately it worked very slow due to the limited memory of 256 MB. So I decided to switch to xfce desktop environment. After I installed xfce on top of GNOME then remove all package of gnome, I started to have some different issues as I had in the Ubuntu GNOME environment. Today I just wanted to talk about the flash player plug-in installation on Firefox issue here.

If you are hosting a SharePoint server on your own network within the same domain, you should be able to log onto the SharePoint team sites with your Windows credentials automatically in IE (Internet Explorer).
If not, just like it happened on some of my co-workers recently. The IE will ask you to enter Domain User Name and password whenever you hit the SharePoint team site or download documents from the SharePoint server. If you did not provide the correct logon credential, your IE browser screen will show the followings:
You are not authorized to view this page
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied because your Web browser is sending a WWW-Authenticate header field that the Web server is not configured to accept.
Please try the following:
- Contact the Web site administrator if you believe you should be able to view this directory or page.
- Click the Refresh button to try again with different credentials.
HTTP Error 401.2 – Unauthorized: Access is denied due to server configuration.
That means the IE did not pass the user’s windows log in credentials automatically to the SharePoint sites based on the IE’s security settings.

I really tried to help Mozilla to make the Guinness Record for the most downloaded software within 24 hours. But unfortunately the poor preparation of Mozilla made it very difficult for me to even get on the website. I tried from 1:40pm (Eastern time, 40 minutes after the official release time) to 2:40pm and could not connect to the website. I am sure it was because too many people were connecting to the website at that moment, but Mozilla should have known better before it put such statement as Make Guinness Record on its website to promote Firefox and lure everybody.
I put some available screenshots below and hope the poor website will be back soon.
And the FireFox could not connect to the download page of Firefox 3.0 on Spreadfirefox website
Finally, I even tried the Firefox Check Updates… feature and no luck at all.
[Updated: the website is back now, it is not too late to download the firefox 3.0 and make the Guinness Record now before 18:00 EST 6/18/2008]

If you like FireFox browser as I do, then I would suggest you do not miss today’s event: to download Firefox 3.0 final and to make the world record since today (6/17/2008 10 PDT) is the official release time for FireFox 3.0 Final.
But the final build of Firefox is now available for download on the FTP server. I could not resist and already grabbed my download and installed. (I will download again as soon as its official release becomes available because my downloading will help Set a Guinness World Record for the most downloaded software in 24 hours)
IMPORTANT: Downloads from FTP server and direct links will not count towards the Guinness World Record attempt for the most software downloads in a day. If participation in this event is important to you, wait for the official release.

After I downloaded some add-ons for my Firefox, I discovered a good IP phone service. It was called Jajah which is a service initiated from the web. And it does not require any additional hardware/software on your computer, and it can connect your and your friends’ regular land line and mobile phones for free or almost free.

I love Firefox, not to say its charming security features and I already felt hooked up especially after a long time playing. But life is always hard to be satisfied. There are still a bunch of website which were not designed well so that they can not perform well in Firefox but good in IE. Like some websites under Micro$oft domain, and one of my favorite online radio site KissRadio. I used to fire these two different types of browsers and busy with switching between them. Life gets better now when

Just wanted to explore some add-ons after I installed the final version of Firefox 3.0 today. I found this add-on named TwitterFox in Get Add-ons Tab after I clicked Tools –> Add-Ons option. Excitedly installed it since I am using Twitter accounts now. But after the TwitterFox installation, my firefox 3.0 acted very wired. I could not bring the Firefox screen focused. It always hid in the taskbar, and the left/right click of my mouse did not even work at all on FireFox in the taskbar.
