Thanks for the heads up, i'll compile FireFox when i have some time.
But its looking good, i tested the beta version of Firefox 1.5 on windows a while back and it had some nice changes and improvements.

I don't like the bigger context menu in Firefox 1.5, the rest looks and acts 99% the same, or so it seems.

When you get a 404 it displays it as a html page now, instead of that god damn annoying popup message box.

Yeah but the current speed tweaks seem to have a few issues with quite a number of mainstream sites, I noticed OpenSSL certificates and TomCat state cookies (the famous Java.NullPointer exception thingy), and also the tweaked-out HTTP pipelining settings can kill ageing routers and has a higher risk of corrupted downloads or breaking connections. I'm sticking with 1.0.7 for now, until they sort through the remaining issues or provide an (easy) option to turn them OFF.
