The results I get:
On 18.0-1, amd64:
- WebSocket NOT supported here!   :(

Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 Iceweasel/18.0

test by jimbergman.net (based on Google sample code)

- Sockets not supported
- Your browser cannot run BrowserQuest!

We're sorry, but your browser does not support WebSockets.
In order to play, we recommend using the latest version of
Firefox, Chrome or Safari. 
- WebSocket	No

On 10.0.11esr-1, i386, I get exactly the same, except that for the
first now the message is:
WebSocket NOT supported here!   :(

Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:10.0.11) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.11 Iceweasel/10.0.11

test by jimbergman.net (based on Google sample code)

Note that for the second you probably get "not connected" or something after a
timeout, while I get "not supported".
