codeignitor and firephp: firephp loaded but doesn't log anything.

Hi all.

There are various articles and blog entries on the web recommending and pointing out how to use firephp.

I have installed the firephp library, but I'm not seeing any logging in firebug. I'm using ff5 on linux, fb 1.8.0b4, with the firephp extension.

My controller has this:

Code:

//load and use firephp
    $this->load->library('php/firephp');            
    $firephp = FirePHP::getInstance(true);
    
    //test firephp
    $myfoo = "foo" ;
    $this->firephp->log($myfoo) ;

This produces no errors in apaches error logs.
However, I'm not seeing any output in the fb console.

What could I be doing wrong?
