## Missing features
|
|
|
|
Some features found on Windows, macOS and Linux are not implemented:
|
|
|
|
- Encrypted Media Extensions (requires Widevine CDM binary)
|
|
- Process sandboxing (requires Capsicum backend)
|
|
- Reduced memory usage (requires mozjemalloc)
|
|
- Crash Reporter (requires Google Breakpad and reproducible builds)
|
|
- WebVR (requires open source runtime)
|
|
- TCP fast open
|
|
- `about:networking#networkid` (requires link state notification)
|
|
|
|
## Cursors
|
|
|
|
From Firefox 142 on, this port defaults to using the new (themed)
|
|
cursor selection. On the upside, this makes Firefox respect the
|
|
desktop environment's theme, on the downside this breaks compatibility
|
|
with the legacy X cursor names. If you experience issues (i.e. the
|
|
mouse cursor not changing to the pointer ("hand") when hovering over
|
|
links), your desktop environment is most likely still set to the legacy
|
|
default/builtin "theme". To remedy this, either
|
|
- set about:config variable "widget.gtk.legacy-cursors.enabled" to "true"
|
|
to re-enable the legacy cursors, or
|
|
- use the Xcursor framework to set a cursor theme (e.g. X resource
|
|
item Xcursor.theme), see Xcursor(3) for details. The Adwaita theme
|
|
will have been installed as a dependency of gtk3 and does work.
|
|
The latter option is only available for X environments.
|
|
|
|
## Audio backend
|
|
|
|
Currently used audio backend can be inspected on `about:support` page.
|
|
Supported backends and default probing order is as follows:
|
|
- `pulse-rust` if `pulseaudio` package is installed (PULSEAUDIO option)
|
|
- `jack` if `jackit` package is installed (JACK option)
|
|
- `sndio` if `sndio` package is installed (SNDIO option)
|
|
- `alsa` if `alsa-lib` package is installed (ALSA option)
|
|
- `oss` (always available)
|
|
To force a specific backend open `about:config` page and create
|
|
`media.cubeb.backend` preference.
|
|
|
|
Microphone selection only works in `oss`, `pulse-rust` backends.
|
|
Other backends are limited to `default` which is usually `/dev/dsp`,
|
|
so use virtual_oss to reroute microphones from non-default devices.
|
|
|
|
## Gamepad API
|
|
|
|
Requires evdev(4) joystick support. On FreeBSD 13 and later enable hgame(4)
|
|
while older versions can use sysutils/iichid or multimedia/webcamd.
|
|
|
|
## smb:// issues
|
|
Network group, machine, and share browsing does not work correctly.
|
|
|
|
## sftp://
|
|
Only sftp access using public key authentication works. To easily
|
|
setup public key authentication to `remote_host`:
|
|
|
|
$ ssh-keygen
|
|
$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh remote_host "cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys"
|
|
|
|
The SSH server on `remote_host` must allow pub key authentication.
