The Find doesn't work on the about:config page. Use the Filter bar at the top if you want to locate prefs. That Filter bar also accepts regular expressions and wildcards.

I shoud've been more specific. Typing in the filter of about:config does not work. Also when open "normal" page sometimes pressing Ctrl-f scrolls to the bottom of the screen instead of

opening the search box. In 3.6 thete were no problem with that.
