[Bug 899975] Re: Global Menu Bar Integration conflicts with some Firefox add-ons

 

Odd, that it didn't ask if you want to save the tabs on attempt to close
firefox, maybe it still conflicts with the addon. Sorry it doesn't work
for you.

Title:
  Global Menu Bar Integration conflicts with some Firefox add-ons

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  SUMMARY

  The Firefox add-on Tab Mix Plus has a session manager that allows you
  to manually store and retrieve previous sessions, including
  automatically-saved sessions when Firefox closes normally or crashes.

  When Canonical's Firefox Global Menu Bar Integration add-on is
  enabled, this prevents restoring a previous session. No error message
  is given.

  The Global Menu Bar Integration add-on should not affect other add-ons
  like this.

  HOW TO DUPLICATE

  1. Install Tab Mix Plus, enabling its session manager.
  https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/

  2. Open two or more tabs.

  3. Close Firefox.

  4. Re-open Firefox.

  5. Try to restore the previous session: Tools > Session Manager > Last
  Session. Although the session is listed, nothing happens.

  Now, disable the Global Menu Bar Integration add-on and repeat the
  steps. This time, the last session will be restored.

  VERSIONS AFFECTED

  I have tested this on:
  * Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit
  * Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit (fresh installation with no add-ons other than the defaults and Tab Mix Plus)

  I have been unable to test on Ubuntu 12.04 (alpha) as I cannot get it
  to run.
