Ubuntu Firefox/Shiretoko 3.5 and User Agent string

I installed the firefox-3.5 package in Jaunty and found that the facebook chat applet on their page stopped working. It seemed to think I was running an outdated browser. A quick google search came up with a result: http://rrenomeron.wordpress.com/2009/07/07/ubuntus-firefox-3-5-and-facebook-chat/

- Type
about:config
in the browser url bar - Type
useragent
into the filter bar - Edit the

and changeShiretoko
toFirefox
