Enable gesture in Firefox with Lion

Mac OS X Lion works for me ok so far but the most missed feature is swiping to go back & forwardin Firefox with 2 fingers with Magic Mouse. Just Google up this page to make gesture working again in Firefox.

System Preferences - Apple Magic Mouse options

In short, go to Systems Preferences > Mouse.

Change “Swipe between pages” to use 2 fingers instead of the default 1 finger.

Then the “Swipe between full-screen apps” will be turned off. If not, do it manually.

Apparently this tricks works for Chrome as well.

Now I’m a happy camper again.

UPDATE: This apparently doesn’t work any more after upgraded to 10.7.1. You may have better luck with jitouch. Thanks Joe for the tip 8)

Firefox 2.0 arrives!

Firefox 2.0 is now available in Mozilla’s FTP server even though their web site hasn’t been updated yet. However some of the plugins doesn’t work with 2.0.
