How can I let Firefox automatically start in FullScreen mode (Mac PowerPC with Firefox 3.6)

I use a Mac Mini (PowerPC) as media-computer for our Narrowcasting screen. It's an old mini with Max OS X 10.5.8 and Firefox 3.6.28.

This works fine for a few years. But every time there is a power failure the mini boots itself again and Firefox is started automatically. BUT NOT IN FULL SCREEN mode. Some has to use Shift-CMD-F to switch the mini back to fullscreen.

Take a look at this addon

It does seem to lock down Firefox quite a bit, and requires manual configuration.

Since you have a PowerPC or PPC and not a Intel, you can look at http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ to have Firefox 31.2.0 which is on ESR channel.

Do note that the old vulnerable plugins for PPC are not supported in TenFourFox. https://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported When they say Add-ons they really mean Extensions.
