    - Installed Stylish 1.1.1,
    - Installed CompizConfig Settings Manager,
    - Modified all settings as described,
    - The title bar is still visible, and tabs are immediately below it.

    ...
    You need Compiz running as Window manager to hide the title bar with compiz.
    If you use lxde try this (from Yalok Iy comment on webup8)

    "Under LXDE (Lubuntu) step 5 is:

    gksu gedit ~/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml

    Then add before the line "/applications" the following lines:
    <application class="Firefox*" name="*" role="*">
    <decor>no</decor>
    </application>

    Log out and login back."

    Hope this helps

    Maybe this is my problem, but I'm not sure how I make sure this is the case, or what I have to disable/remove to achieve that.

    (I'm not using LXDE on the laptop I want to use with FF4.)

    It would be a help to know what you use but for now here is an info about compiz and how to enable it.
    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Co...r/CompizFusion

    and if you cant use compiz then perhaps devilspie is something for you

    Re: Firefox 4 Mega Thread

    You should be able to hide the title bar in any window manager. You can do it in Openbox and LXDE. What are you using? Straight Metacity?

    That's not the same as Firefox full screen mode though, but you might like it better. In full screen mode there are various ways to toggle or temporarily display the location bar, or you can press alt-d to have a location dialog come up for you.

    You should be able to disable troublesome extensions even if you can't uninstall them from the addon manager. Quicker and easier if you are turning them on and off looking for problems.

    Thanks guys! I'm using whatever is default in Lucid Lynx (if that's even called a window manager ... I don't know). Basically, I open the Preferences menu in the top panel, and choose Appearance from the list. This is where Compiz now shows up, but I can't tell if Compiz is actually controlling everything or not.

    I can take some screenshots if that would help anything.

    Ubuntu Firefox 4 dictionary giving me UK spellings

    It appears that this is locali"s"ed to Ubuntu FF4, but for some reason, it seems that the FF4 in-line spell check has some how defaulted to the UK-English spelling of things like realise, editorialise, the afore-mentioned localised. I checked and under content > languages US English is selected. Anyone solve this issue before? It is not happening in FF4/Vista and I have not run FF3 in Ubuntu.

    **Update**
    I found that you need to right click on a multi-line text box and under languages select English / United States. I think it defaulted to English / Australian because it was first on the list.
