Yes, it will. cairo-gtk2 is the default (last I looked). |

But that will only work until FF 3.5.x. 3.6 has OJI support removed. |
| 18 |
And as all up-to-date Java plugins without security problems on Linux |
| 19 |
are not OJI, you will want to not set this one. |

Don't bother, or does it matter if you save 15 kB in the binaries? Nothing |
| 27 |
will run faster if you disable it. |

This is the default, and I think one cannot disable it any more. SQLite |
| 39 |
is an integral part of Firefox by now. The flag above is probably ignored. |

Use --disable-ogg is you don't want HTML5-like Ogg-Theora movies in |
| 49 |
webpages. |
