[Bug 909200]

[Gavin Sharp]

I'm not sure why you bring up the time zone - it has no impact on
Firefox's behavior. Firefox by default redirects all searches to
google.com, and relies on Google doing locale-detection on their end. I
don't think they factor in local time in that detection - the relevant
factors are usually IP geolocation, accept-language settings, and
perhaps also your build's locale. You say that your Windows machine
behaves correctly - I assume it's in the same location/using the same
internet connection? Are you using the stock Ubuntu Linux distribution
of Firefox, or a version distributed from mozilla.org? Have you tried a
new profile?
