I confirm it must have been a temporary failure of the Google geolocation
service
The computer I was using has no Wifi so it must be an IP-based geolocation.
Now it's working on this 64bit ubuntu precise.
I also tested on another computer with Wifi (32bit, also Precise).

@Chris Coulson (chrisccoulson): Thanks, with the actual update (28.0,
Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu, canonical - 1.0) google geo location maps
seem to display again.
It took about 6 months (not days!) to correct this bug; disappointing.

28.0+build2-0ubuntu0.12.04.1.
But the symptom is a bit different.
Before, the geolocation API was never responding. Usually, the website ended up
on a timeout.
Now, the goelocation API always returns an error :

Thanks, Chris.
It's sad for me, but this event was the straw the broke the camel's
back, and I have abandoned Linux on the desktop after ~15 years (Debian
hamm). If a so-called LTS release could not support an essential

Do we know why this is disabled in Ubuntu's Firefox builds?

Echoing #9 - I'm disappointed that Ubuntu just seem to be sitting on
this bug and doing nothing which is hard to understand when you realise
that its not a huge problem to fix it. Manually installing the Official
Mozilla release fixes the problem but then means I have to manually keep
that updated
The problem stays after update to firefox 26.0. For all that need geo
location maps and therefor need to change to the mozilla/firefox release
please note that a 64bit version is available at
http://download.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/.

This is really astonishing, I just upgraded Ubuntu's Firefox to version
26.0 and geolocation is still not working. The identical version from
Mozilla works flawlessly.
I am very disappointed that there has been no acknowledgement of this
bug by Ubuntu.

I'm one of the Firefox developers working on the geolocation code.
Comment 5 is correct; the Ubuntu releases of Firefox need a key provided
by Google in order to access the service. Note that this also impacts
safebrowsing requests. The key can be added to the build with the

I just upgraded Ubuntu's firefox from the repos. It is now on version
25.0.1. Geoloacation is still not working in the Ubuntu version.

Looking here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=919153
It seems that each distro needs a new key from Google for location
tracking, er, discovery. Presumably this is at the root of the problem.

I installed firefox v23.01 to /opt. It picked up my settings from
~/.mozilla and everything, including geolocation worked fine.
I then let it upgrade to v25. No problems, everything, including
geolocation, worked fine.
So, I swapped back to Ubuntu Firefox v25. Sadly, geolocation stopped
working.
After update to Firefox 25.0 the problem stays. Tested also with a brand
new new account on the system.
