Firefox 3.5 – Disable GFX Color Management
July 5th, 2009 | 
Author: Firefox 3.5 introduced a new feature GFX Color Management. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to work right.
Here is how to disable it
Type in “about:config” in the addressbar and click the button to gain access to the configuration
Type in “gfx.color_management.mode” and hit enter.
The value of “gfx.color_management.mode” should currently be 2, double-click the line and change the value to 0 to disable the GFX Color Management.
Restart Firefox
Thanks to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Gfx.color_management.enabled for the info on the needed values.

Firefox 3.5 – Close Last Tab – But Don’t Close Firefox
Firefox 3.5 is a great improvement over the past versions, but like many others I discovered one annoyance:
When you only have one tab open and try to close it, it closes Firefox too.
I find this really annoying, but I already found a solution (thanks to Lifehacker):
- Type “about:config” on your addressbar
- Type “browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab” and hit Enter
- The Firefox configuration should show only only entry now, double-click it and you are done.
