And there was me thinking you were being funny, re that some can't see the ico in the address bar.
Well it made me laugh anyway, so thanks for that

ps. I got no problem seeing the icon in address bar for lxf or ubuntu.

In Firefox, you need to load the site by clicking on the bookmark or the link in your bookmark toolbar to reload the icon. I use Google Browser Sync and need to do this if I want to reload the icons for my bookmarks. Typing the URL in manually doesn't seem to reload them.

That's funny - the only favicon that my openSUSE 10.2 install won't pickup is Ubuntu!

LXF already has. Well, at least on my Debian/Iceape I have a small icon in the addressbar of the browser. Or did you mean something else?

We need a .ico file so I can recognize Linux format from my other bookmarks. Thanks in advance if you decide to make one. Firefox isn't detecting one that I know of although the search box has one.
