[Bug 834358] Re: Changing provider on search bar in Firefox causes 404 Error on Ubuntu default homepage

[Kyle Kalstabakken]

I believe the problem is in aboutStartpage.js

I'm not sure what the intended functionality is here, but I feel like
the start page should be using the default search provider instead of
the one currently selected in the search bar. If this is true, I believe
it would be fixed by replacing nsIBrowserSearchService.currentengine
with nsIBrowserSearchService.defaultengine

To prevent the 404 errors, a switch statement around the uri definition
would allow access to the pages we know are available at
start.ubuntu.com, and the default would just be Google...

I'll make a patch sometime when I get around to figuring out how that
works here.
