Took almost 2 weeks. :) As for extensions, I believe almost all of them will be updated in less than a week. Some have already been, in the past couple of <i>hours</i>.

I don't like 1.5b1, none of my extensions work, and the feeds been at the top is just a pain! I don't like the new skin either. It is faster though :D BA~~9 Linux is too complicated :D !

Problem solved. :)

On Firefox 1.0.x, the UI would become momentarily unusable while some heavier page was loading and rendering (even if its was in background). Already knew that this would be solved for Firefox 1.1 (which, meanwhile, turned out to be 1.5), and so it is! :) I only find something rather annoying, which I didn't think happened before: when you open a full bookmarks folder with middle-click (=each page on that folder in a tab), FF 1.5b1 completely nukes any tabs that were open before --- whereas (if I can recall) FF 1.0.x added the bookmarks' tabs to the already open ones.
