I included a link to the solution http://superuser.com/questions/471988/why-does-midori-on-fedora-linux-pretend-to-be-safari-on-mac-os-x Midori user agent is reported as: "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-gb) AppleWebKit/535+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/535.22+ Midori/0.4" It apparently stems from being set to 'Automatic' instead of 'Midori' I'm not sure if it's a good idea to change it or not but thought it worth reporting. Copied from the link.. Midori identifies as OS X Safari when set to Automatic. Choose Midori to override it. From midori/midori-websettings.h: typedef enum { MIDORI_IDENT_MIDORI /* Automatic */, MIDORI_IDENT_GENUINE /* Midori */, MIDORI_IDENT_SAFARI, // etc. } MidoriIdentity; midori/midori-websettings.c: switch (identify_as) { case MIDORI_IDENT_GENUINE: return g_strdup_printf ("Mozilla/5.0 (%s %s) AppleWebKit/%d.%d+ %s", platform, os, webcore_major, webcore_minor, appname); case MIDORI_IDENT_MIDORI: case MIDORI_IDENT_SAFARI: g_object_set (web_settings, "enable-site-specific-quirks", TRUE, NULL); return g_strdup_printf ("Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; %s) " "AppleWebKit/%d+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/%d.%d+ %s", lang, webcore_major, webcore_major, webcore_minor, appname); // etc.
The workaround: Go to Preferences > Network > Identify As, and choose Midori It then identifies as: "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux) AppleWebKit/535.22+ Midori/0.4"

This message is a reminder that Mageia 2 is nearing its end of life. Approximately one month from now Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 2. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '2'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 2's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Mageia 2 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- The Mageia Bugsquad
Seems fixed in mga3: "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux) AppleWebKit/537.6 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.133 Safari/537.6 Midori/0.4"
closing them as I guess nobody will fix it in mga2, thanks
