Google Toolbar on Ubuntu Hardy Heron

I love the Google Toolbar, because it allows me to use Google's bookmark service embedded to my browser. So I can use the toolbar on a Mac, Windows or Linux machine and have my bookmarks everywhere I am.
But with the cool new version 3 of my favorite browser Firefox the toolbar stopped working. Firefox crashed after installing (and disabling compatibility test in Firefox ;-)).
Now a new version is available and the Toolbar is back to my Firefox :-)
But on Ubuntu there is still a problem with the bookmarks. To fix it, just type the following into your terminal:

sudo apt-get install libxul-dev libstdc++5 gcc-4.2 libstdc++6

Than reinstall the toolbar, if you allready tried without success. Now your bookmarks should work even on Ubuntu :-)

Firebug and Firefox 3 Beta 5

After installing Firefox 3 beta 5 I had a lot of trouble with the Google Toolbar. After disabling the check for Extensions, Firefox didn't start anymore.
Now I fixed the problem by removing Google Toolbar, but an Add-on I really need is Firebug. For web development, there is no better tool for debugging your page.
Unfortunately the current version of Firebug doesn't support Firefox 3. But instead of the Google Toolbar it works after disabling compatibility check.
Or better it works pretty fine on my Mac and on a Windows XP machine, but it fails on my Ubuntu Hardy Heron machine, where Firefox 3 is the default browser.

Firebug on Firefox 3 RC1 (Mac OS X)

But thanks to Ubuntu team there is a great solution. You can install Firebug as a package from the Ubuntu repositories. This version of Firebug works great in Firefox 3 beta 5 in Ubuntu.
