Perhaps this is not proper site to place this question,but i just meet
this problem!

I want to share my firefox 1.0.1 profile in windows xp and freebsd 5.3,i
can run with:firefox -safe-mode,it will freeze when i
use:firefox,obviousely,it's because of the extensions.When you setup
extensions in windows xp,firefox can't start in freebsd,when you setup
extensions in freebsd,firefox can't start in windows!Why?

Why? Because Windows XP and FreeBSD are completely different operating systems. Their binaries are not compatible.


How to resovle
it?

If you can figure out how to keep the extensions directories separate while keeping the rest of the preferences the same it should work.

At the worst, you could export your bookmarks from one and import them
into the other. Then you would just have to go through the preferences
and make sure the settings are the same otherwise.

The bookmarks and history or other data can share correctly,

Good.

just extesions!Some extensions can setup into the firefox program dir in
windows(can in freebsd?),


I'm not sure what you are trying to say.
just extensions can't work correctly.If all the extension can setup at firefox main direcotory,this is not a problem,i can setup in windows and freebsd individually.Unfortunetly,only seral extension can setup like that!


but most just setup into the profile extesions dir.


I believe you can simply move the extension to the global extensions directory and restart Firefox.
I have tried,if the extesions at profile directory are moved into firefox's main directory,firefox can not find this extensions at all.

If you try it, make a note of which extensions you moved because you might have to move them back.



If all the extension can select setup dir at setup time,perhaps this problem can be resolved.
