IIRC, the stock mozilla.org builds are built against GTK 1.x. SuSE uses GTK2.
Get the Firebird 0.7 rpm from the packman site. It works great and uses GTK2 and xft. You also might concider using the
Packman is still at 0.6.1. For that matter, SuSE's build has been AWOL from the ftp server for some time.
gnome-settings-daemon to keep the theme correct and the fonts looking good. It doesn't take up many resources and makes Mozilla, Firebird and other GTK2 apps look much nicer.
gnome-settings-daemon? How... quaint. <#include appropriate-smiley.h>
If anyone using an Athlon and wants the most up-to-date daily gtk2+xft builds of both Firebird and Thunderbird then go to- http://pryan.org/firebird/yek/ for FB, and http://pryan.org/thunderbird/yek for TB. I have been using the above now for almost a week on a daily basis without a problem. I say this because I have a feeling that not only are they optimised for Athlon (whatever that means) but they are meant for the RH distro but work perfectly with SUSE (9.0).
