nah, it's not vendor
they have updated to sniff for gecko (using fred hao 1.9.2 kmeleons work fine without requiring any spoof
the problem now is for gecko browsers they are using special js code that does not work with 1.8 any more

millar has a point about their rationale because its certainly questionable.. the code is nothing special really..very basic js is used with the presto engine which kmeleon 1.5 is able to translate and inject without problems except for minor icons display errors

i don't think they are targeting kmeleon 1.5, their new gecko code affects all geckos 1.8..so even firefox 2.0 seamonkey 1.8 can no longer work with facebook without using presto string which calls for an older js which geckos can interpret.. i think they are targeting older firefoxes and/or windows 9x.. the new code doesn't even work with early ff 3.0 using gecko 1.9.0 and requires atleast 1.9.1.. i don't know why they did that, not so long ago i got a reply from one of their web devs confirming that that sniffer was bad and ;they; are working on a better gecko and browsers in general one but he didn't mention anything specific to 1.9.1+

it does sound weird because they could use a very simple 1.9.1+ unspecific code similar to the code injected for prestos which would have worked with all geckos and even all browsers(except for ie) without the need for a spefic engine sniffer except to check for trident...while all other browsers like gecko , webkit and presto can use a universal js for the features bar

i tried several ua's nothing worked properly.. chromium/webkit string had a weird effect, the bar popped up for 1 second and disappeared(js error) and only once when first loading the facebook site..it doesn't pop again once the site/cookie is cached. even the new opera string which identifies as mozilla first doesn't work..only that old opera string is the one that can work for gecko 1.8 and called out the older js..hopefully that won't block that one too soon, it seems that opera prefers that older(non-mozilla) string for linux distros and uses the new string for windows machines.

anyway, the good news is when km updates to 1.6, it will be the end of all facebook problems..for now, the switcher has been updated to use presto with facebook only:
